Loving the continuation of this series. We immediately kick off the story being thrown into the plot as Carter and Sadie are attempting to "borrow" and ancient Egyptian artifact from a museum. As usual with a Riordan story, we hit the ground running and the action doesn't ever stop. We travel all over the globe again as the Kanes attempt to stop Apophis from rising, but this time we have new gods and mortals assisting (and attempting to thwart) the siblings. Really love the found family aspect of this story but as always, the mythology aspects continue to shine for me.
