He's b-a-a-ack! Despite their best efforts, Carter and Sadie Kane can't seem to keep Apophis, the chaos snake, down. Now Apophis is threatening to plunge the world into eternal darkness, and the Kanes are faced with the impossible task of having to destroy him once and for all. Unfortunately, the magicians of the House of Life are on the brink of civil war, the gods are divided, and the young initiates of Brooklyn House stand almost alone against the forces of chaos. The Kanes' only hope is an ancient spell that might turn the serpent's own shadow into a weapon, but the magic has been lost for a millennia. To find the answer they need, the Kanes must rely on the murderous ghost of a powerful magician who might be able to lead them to the serpent's shadow . . . or might lead them to their deaths in the depths of the underworld.

Nothing less than the mortal world is at stake when the Kane family fulfills its destiny in this thrilling conclusion to the Kane Chronicles.

I really like what @titanogamer said because mi big sis saw the movie too and its true.

I really like the Kane Chronicles, but I don't think we should make a movie out of it. My brother saw how the Percy Jackson movies went.

this is a great sample to the book! thank u Rick riordan!

Sadie and Carter Kane must save the world- again- only this tine from the snake god, Apophis. Can they really do it or will the world finally end?

This is a great book that is my favorite book. The book is about two kids, Carter and Sadie, who are decended from a line of powerful magicians. In the Serpents Shadow, Carter and Sadie, along with their amazing trainees must stop the monster of chaos, Apophis and restore Maโ€™at to the world and to the Duat. But they donโ€™t have much help. Anubis is forbidden from meeting up with any mortals, Bast is stuck with the task of keeping the less powerful trainees safe, Zia is tasked with the worst job, babysitting the sun god, Uncle Amos is now the most powerful wizard in the world and must keep EVERYONE safe, and one of the best trainees, Walt, is suffering because of a curse placed on his ancestor, King Tut. But somehow, they will have to succeed, or doomsday might come earlier then anyone ever imagined. This is an awesome book. Read it!!!

The way how this book finishes everything that the author had presented in the previous 2 books is truly amazing. I like that the way that he finishes the book and the series is very nice, I would really recommend this book.

I love it!
