Heather's review of The Kane Chronicles Book 1: The Red Pyramid

 The Red Pyramid is the first book in a new series by Rick Riordan, the writer of the much read Percy Jackson series. This new series is about Carter and Sadie who are the most powerful Kane children ever born. When their father was blamed for their mother's mysterious death, a court battle led to the younger of the children, Sadie Kane, being separated from her father and brother at a young age. One day when her father and Carter were allowed to visit, they went on a trip to a museum and every thing went wrong.
 This thrilling tale about the Egyptian gods and the battle between order and chaos is a great read but is also educational, telling about Egyptian mythology and history. Even Christians would like this story about good versus evil and overall it was a book I would recommend to any one.
