Description

In their first encounter, demigod Percy Jackson and magician Carter Kane had to battle a giant crocodile on Long Island. A month later, Annabeth Chase ran into Carter's sister, Sadie, on the A train to Rockaway, where the pair fought a god named Serapis. Now trouble is brewing again, this time on Governor's Island. An ancient Egyptian magician named Setne has come back from the dead and is experimenting with Egyptian and Greek magic, trying to become a god himself. He's so powerful and tricky that all four—Percy, Annabeth, Carter, and Sadie—have to team up against him. But their usual weapons and spells aren't going to cut it this time. Will the heroes be taken down by a wannabe god who looks like Elvis, or will they rise to the challenge? Told from Percy's point of view, this third demigod-magician crossover story has all of the spunk and action that Rick Riordan fans crave.

    My only gripe is how short it is. I genuinely hope Riordan is writing a new series that combines our Greek heroes and Egyptian magicians, because I would devour the books ASAP!
  • Um that’s short

    I’m eleven. I can finish a 921 page book in 3 days. (Honest). So it took me around 30 minutes to finish this. Not very enjoyable. This got three stars because I ship percabeth like you wouldn’t believe
  • Awesome book!

    This book is as good as all the Rick Riordans, but the best part is that it isn’t published so it’s like a mystery book
  • The Crown of Ptolemy.....is pretty cool

    I actually enjoyed this. A combination of Egyptian and Greek magic is the best. I want to know if Sadie, Carter, Percy, and Annabeth will meet each other again. Overall...it is da best!! I loved it even if it was a short story. I suggest that this should be a series.
  • Love it!❤️

    Is there any chance that you have the short story without the audio? Also, can you bring back Demigods and Magicians too? Because I only found a Spanish version. Thanks.
  • Confusing Cover Art

    On the cover you can't tell Annabeth from Sadie. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled there are two blondes (I'm blonde) but you should be able to tell them apart! Why isn't Annabeth wearing her Camp Half-Blood shirt?
  • SOOOOO GOOOOOD💖💖💖💖💖

    I just found out about this series, and looking at the reviews and the descriptions and samples... this sounds like an EPIC series... I have an idea... maybe a crossover with PJO and Kane Chronicles and the VILLAINS! Like the Titan Lord (I'm not saying his name b/c we all know that names have power :D) and Set?
