Penguin presents the audiobook release of Desert Oath by Oliver Bowden, read by John Banks.

Before Assassin’s Creed Roots, there is an Oath.

Egypt, 70BC, a merciless killer stalks the land. His objective: to discover and destroy the final members of an ancient purchase, the Medjay – to eradicate the bloodline.

In relaxing Siwa, the town’s protector abruptly departs, leaving his adolescent son, Bayek, with questions about his personal future and a feeling of purpose he knows he must fulfill. Bayek sets off in search of answers, his journey taking him along the Nile and via an Egypt in turmoil, facing the risks and the mysteries of the Medjay’s path.
