As descendants of the House of Life, the Kanes have some powers at their command; but the devious gods haven't given them time to master their skills at Brooklyn House, a training ground for young magicians. And now their most threatening enemy yet--the Chaos snake, Apophis--is rising. If they don't prevent him from breaking free in a few days' time, the world will end. In other words, it's a typical week for the Kane family. To have any chance of battling the forces of Chaos, the Kanes must revive the sun god, Ra. But that would be a feat more difficult than any magician has ever accomplished. I loved this second book in Riordan’s Egyptian mythology trilogy. It was an awesome plot full of twist and turns and evil magicians all along the way, with the only part that dissapointed me being the lack of evolution towards the siblings relationship that had already been made at the end of the previous book and was completely forgotten. This series isn't my favourite in terms of Riordan books, but it is still really good. I love all the new characters in this installment; there are plenty of new magicians, gods and baddies that we meet in The Throne of Fire. Sadie and Carter continue to be amazing and I love their relationship and narration style. This book is best read by younger readers, but is accessible to anyone who loves Rick Riordan’s books and world-building.
