bethly126 's review for:
The Throne of Fire
by Rick Riordan
This one was so much better then the first. It's still not on the same level as his Greek Myths series, Percy Jackson and the Half-Blood crowd but it's still pretty good. Carter and Sadie are more well rounded characters and are a whole lot funnier. I think Roirdan was able to spend more time with them and the story since he didn't have to spend so much time explaining how Egyptian Mythology works. This series has the disadvantage that his others don't is that most people are not familiar with Egyptian Gods and Myths like they are with Greek. You may not know the names of the Greek gods or the stories behind them but chances are you have read or seen them reference in a movie or book somewhere. Not so much with Egyptian. But with most of the explaning out of the way in the book Roirdan spent more time with our characters and let them be themselves and it made for a better book.
