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 have read the books 'The Red Pyramid' and 'The Throne of Fire' at least 10 TIMES EACH! I LOVE THESE BOOKS! The problem is, I CANNOT find the third book. SO I am sad now. But soon, I hope I will find it. I RECOMMEND THE FIRST TWO BOOKS SO FAR BECAUSE THEY ARE AMAZING!
The red pyramid is really cool! It is about A boy named Carter, and his Dad who travel place almost every day. Carter's mom had died. Sadie, Carter's sister, lived with their grandparents in France. Then on Christmas eve, Carter, Sadie and their dad went to a museum in france. when they got there Carter and Sadie were told not to go into the room with a special rock, where he was. Then The rock broke and an evil god came and captured their dad. Read the book to find out more.

This book is really great for people who love adventure,fiction.
I think this book is very cool.The main idea(topic) is that Carter and Sadie must learn to control or master their powers to defeat Set the Egyptian god of evil and destruction.Little did they know they come from ancient and powerful bloodline of pharaohs,and that the gods Horus and Isis were hosting their bodies.Now they have to get trough the House of Life and defeat Set.Read more to find out
