was a really fun read and i liked the story. It was fun that Rick Riordan made the two mane characters siblings since that makes this book different from all of his other books.

Honestly, Riordan has done it all: Greek, Norse, Roman mythology. But now he was entered into Egyptian mythology. I had read it a while back. It was so good!!!

Everybody loves Riordan. This is just a fact, and it’s proven by the fan website, the kids who have posters of the series, and the Percy Jackson fanclubs. That’s beside the fact. This is a fantasy story set in the world of New York, but…

Yes, Rick Riordan wrote lots of other great books. He is best known for his Greek and Roman half-blood series, but none have the staying power that these three do in our household. The story's the tightest of all his series, and it's the…
