The Red Pyramid

The Red Pyramid
(book 1 in the Kane Chronicles)
Rick Riordan
516 pages
 The Red Pyramid, by Rick Riordan, starts off with a boy, Carter, his sister, Sadie, and their dad. Carter and Sadie's mother died so Sadie lives with her grandparents while Carter travels around with his dad (the two only see each other twice a year). On one of their visits, Carter and Sadie eventually find out that the Egyptian gods are real and that they come from a magical family called "the blood of the pharaohs". Eventually, losing their father, Carter and Sadie are left  alone with their uncle Amos and are trying to figure out what happened to their father, and if they can get him back. They also find out that they have to stop the evil god, Set, from spreading chaos throughout the earth before his birthday! Can Carter and Sadie learn magic and stop Set in time, or while chaos reign on earth forever?
