No current Talk conversations about this book. read this series back in middle school so I don't really remember much of the plot if I'm going to be honest BUT i do remember enjoying them and loving the sibling relationship between Carter and Sadie. This will be a re-read eventually, as I never got around to reading the 3rd book. ( ) 4.5/5 To someone who's relatively new to Egyptian mythology, the graphic novels are a brilliant way to begin and I loved the book one of kane chronicles. I got to learn a lot about the Egyptian gods and their possible origin stories while I stared in awe at the beautiful illustrations bt Orpheus Collar. Rick Riordan has a brilliant way of presenting his stories and the characters were lovely. I can't wait to get to book 2. I was very up and down about this one. The beginning ties into the end so much better, for why the preamble addresses the reader (within the reader/world). Though I am not holding out a huge hope on this as chapter one of Percy did that and never came back to it after book one. I do like the tape recording aspect, with comments between the siblings. But I found myself having to correct myself over his strong holds too many times. I feel he has discovered only one or two ways of doing certain things, which he used sensibly in Percy Jackson, but I was disappointed to see him lying on in this one. That aside I really loved getting to have a children's novel book walk around in the Egyptian Gods. And I'm quite interested and impressed in the fact he decided to keep both series in the same world. Belongs to SeriesIs contained inContainsHas the adaptationAwardsNotable Lists
