Carter and Sadie continue to be hilarious and now we have more side characters to care about. This book does slightly suffer from second book syndrome as you can tell it’s doing a lot of heavy lifting to set yo for the third book but it is enjoyable all the same. Riordan’s modernisation of ancient gods is always hilarious, in particular the difference between Khonshu in Marvel’s Moon Knight and the finance bro Khonshu in this book was so funny to me. I am very intrigued to see how the hell this series is going to end and what’s to come for the relationships our main characters hold dear.

I aways have been intrigued and entertained by Rick Riordan books not truly appalled, but for me there was something about this book that really made it shine. I'll admit I wasn't even totally amazed by the first book in the series but this one dived in hard.
Maybe that something was the that we weren't being introduced to kids who find a mystical world AGAIN. Maybe that something was the depth personalities on some of these new characters. Maybe that something was the intense magic fights. Maybe it was the strong ending we are left with, but whatever that something was it really-in my opinion-made this stand out from your average Rick Riordan books.
Great book. Recommended.

Perfect mix of cute lines between Carter and Sadie, boy troubles, battling monsters and things that want to take over the world, and death defying stunts! Great sequel to [b:The Red Pyramid|7090447|The Red Pyramid (Kane Chronicles, #1)|Rick Riordan|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1366227978s/7090447.jpg|7346572].
“Words are the source of all power. And names are more than just a collection of letters.”
This story was intense and gave readers a lot of cool facts about Egyptian gods and also about fighting. I always love stories more when I feel like I've learnt something and Riordan always manages to put in some life wisdom into each of his books. “Sometimes you have to lose a piece to win a game.” He balances some tough truths about the world with a story about kids who have to save the world from ridiculous immortal beings who are power tripping, and it's a wonderfully entertaining series!
