Under the Rebel's Reign by Charles Neufeld
"Under the Rebel's Reign" by Charles Neufeld is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story is set against the backdrop of an Egyptian revolt, intertwining themes of adventure and conflict with vivid character interactions. The narrative likely centers around George Helmar, a young man entangled in tumultuous events in Egypt following a contentious duel and a series of life-changing decisions that lead him into a world of danger andintrigue. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to George Helmar, a university student who finds himself at the center of a duel that results in the injury of his opponent, John Landauer. The societal pressures of honor and the prohibition of dueling for a theological student like his friend, Charlie Osterberg, leave George grappling with the moral implications of violence. Following the duel, George decides to leave Europe and embark on an adventure with Charlie and another acquaintance to escape the weight of responsibility and bloodshed. Their journey leads them through Vienna and onto the Danube, where they plan to reach Constantinople and ultimately Egypt. However, their trip quickly turns dangerous as they encounter brigands and political unrest. The opening chapters set the stage for a gripping tale of survival, camaraderie, and the quest for redemption amidst chaos. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
