     This was a great book! I loved reading it. I thought it was exciting every page that I turned. As Sadie and Carter Kane, the most powerful teenagers in the world of magic are challenged to save the world yet another time. After Sadie lights downtown New York on fire with white Greek flames they have to find two more parts of the scroll to the book of Ra. They meet Set the god of evil. Sadie gives up Sets secret name to find the last part of the scroll. Sadie and carter split up. Neither may return. But in the end one way or the other one of them will have to rescue Ra and bring chaos to a calm. Sadie is faces with mummies while Carter is faces with water serpents. It isn't looking good for either and both of them are regretting the path that they took. Will they survive to see the light of day or will the whole world fall under the power of chaos?
     This book's setting is in Egypt, New York, and Russia! As Sadie and Carter traveled around the world and had hard times and had great success I knew how they felt with a lot of hard things to do with almost no good outcome! I had such a fun time reading this and hope you will too! I though about how hard it would be to go through all of the things they went through in only a few days! I am excited to read the next book! I hope it will be as good as this one and the one before was! Before you read it see how much fun it would be to read! Here are some quotes and who I would recommend it to!  
  I would recommend this book to anyone especially the ones that love magic, mystery, excitement, and adventure! I read this book really quick because I could never put it down! I hope that everyone who reads this will enjoy it as much as I did! Just to show you how awesome this book is here are a few quotes from the book!! 
  • “Throwing down your staff may sound like a sign of surrender, but in Egyptian magic, it's bad news. It usually means, 'Hey, I'm going to summon a big nasty thing to kill you while I stand safely inside my circle and laugh'.” 
  • “Two farewell gifts," Sadie muttered, "from two gorgeous guys. I hate my life.”  
“The sign was spray-painted in Arabic and English, probably from some attempt by the farmer to sell his wares in the market. The English read: Dates-best price. Cold Bebsi. "Bebsi?" I asked. "Pepsi,"  Walt said. "I read about it on the Internet. There's no 'p' in Arabic. Everyone here calls the soda Bebsi."
"So you have to have Bebsi with your bizza?"
"Brobably.”        

As you can tell this is a great book and has a little bit of comedy in it! I hope you love it as much as I did!

  2. I loved this book and thought it was a great read. I liked the comedy and action mix in this book it made it very entertaining. My favorite character in this book series was Carter Kane. The author did a very good job of mixing mythology with the modern day.
