Diary of Dorkius Maximus – In Egypt

When Dorkius is invited by Julius Caesar on a trip to Egypt he's in for one big adventure. In a hilarious string of events, Dorkius encounters the 13-year-old King Ptolemy ("that spoilt brat") and his not-so-beautiful sister Cleopatra, whom he introduces to Caesar, thus bringing about one of the greatest love stories of all time (it involves a carpet), and ultimately the defeat of the pharaoh.
