5By harmful capeThis is such a good book loved it we listened to it every nightWow
5By Doubletap2008I love this book. You might think because it is overshadowed by the Percy Jackson series that it is not as good. NOT the case. Sure, Percy Jackson was really funny, and a good read, but this books is awesome too with a totally different vibe. I personally think Rick Riordan is brilliant for harnessing the fascinating worlds of Greek, Egyptian, Norse, and Roman mythology, and putting them into modern day. I liked how he toggled back and forth in between Sadie and Carter's voices. I liked the whole 'estranged siblings' thing. He did a great job at explaining the confusing parts of Egyptian mythology, like why suddenly Isis is Horus's mother and sister, and Osiris' sister AND husband. He also had a captivating plot and really awesome spells.Great but havenβt finished it
