Hi Jonathan, thanks for the question.

For me it was the ancient Egyptian's ideas about the afterlife, the concepts they developed around death, and the entire world they created to fill this void; looking for answers to the human question.

It was definitely not just the mummies, I steered clear of that concept as I didn't want to create a cliche story. Books 2 and 3 (the final of the series, currently with the first editor) delve more into their underworld, the Duat.(less)
