On an expedition in Egypt, Melissa Ambers and her sponsor Jonathan discover the black pyramid.  She notes the unique hieroglyphics and realizes this is unlike any other find. Returning to her hotel room she encounters Siaak the leader of the Sandwalkers. He is an ancient breed with paranormal powers who guards the mortal world against the Bloodseekers. Osiris, the queen of the bloodseekers is trapped by Siaak and his brothers in the black pyramid. Siaak's brothers Kiros and Myaten stand guard. Blasting into the tomb has weakened Osiris's prison. Siaak must wake his brothers from their sleep to help him rebuild the magical barriers.  While protecting the secret of the pyramid Siaak must also fight his attraction to Melissa. I gave Black Pyramid four stars because I really liked the story. The book has a handful of small editing errors, and did not detract from my enjoyment of the story. This Indies author makes an effort to correct mistakes. It is not easy to produce a perfectly edited book. I loved Siaak, Myaten and Kiros. Their camaraderie provided an entertaining read. Osiris is a perfect villian (villianess?) bloodthirsty yet an awesome character, I hoped for her redemption. Melissa's snarkiness was a bit annoying and I agreed with Siaak when he said 'shut the hell up Melissa!' yet she did redeem herself by showing a softer side. Mark and Beth were strong secondary characters. The content is suitable for adults only due to language, and sexual content. It was refreshing to have a story where the main characters don't stop in the middle of life and death action for a hot and heavy sexual scene, then go back to killing the monsters. The Egyptian background was very interesting.
