Since his mother’s death six years ago, Carter Kane has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the globe with his father, the brilliant Egyptologist Dr. Julius Kane. But while Carter’s been homeschooled, his younger sister, Sadie, has been living with their grandparents in London. Sadie has just what Carter wants — school friends and a chance at a “normal” life. But Carter has just what Sadie longs for—time with their father. After six years of living apart, the siblings have almost nothing in common. Until now.
On Christmas Eve, Sadie and Carter are reunited when their father brings them to the British Museum, with a promise that he’s going to “make things right.” But all does not go according to plan: Carter and Sadie watch as Julius summons a mysterious figure, who quickly banishes their father and causes a fiery explosion.
Soon Carter and Sadie discover that the gods of Ancient Egypt are waking, and the worst of them—Set—has a frightening scheme. To save their father, they must embark on a dangerous journey—a quest that brings them ever closer to the truth about their family and its links to the House of Life, a secret order that has existed since the time of the pharaohs.

I love this book!read on ricks blog that they are making a graphic novel but I think the actual book will be way better.
I really love this book because it has a lot of action. It's also full of humor as a brother and sister, Carter Kane and Sadie Kane, (my last name!) fight for their lives, their father, and the world. It's written by my favorite author Rick Riordan!!!
I s about Egyptian mythology and magic). Much better then Percy Jackson.... -E., (Sky)
This is SERIOUSLY one of the best books EVER .You should shut down the computer and go check it out RIGHT NOW. My fave book since I discovered Micheal Jackson.
