I loved the Percy Jackson books, and I liked the first book in the new Half-Bloods series. This one just didn't do it for me. It's written well enough, but I just don't think this series is for me. I'll probably read the rest, but I'll really be hoping for the next book with the demigods. It's proba...
I mostly liked this book for the character Sadie, but Bast and Carter were okay too. The writing style was average, and not quite as involving as Percy Jackson, and the story was (in my oppinion) lame.
Sadie and Carter Kane are siblings that have only seen each other twice a year since their mother died six years ago.Sadie is 12 and lives in London with her maternal grandparents. Carter is 14 and lives out of a suitcase traveling the world with his father, Julius Kane, who is an Egyptologist.Sadie...
I really didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would. That being said, I had high expectations from the author. I didn't like the length. It dragged in a lot of places and what it lead up to wasn't enough to override the parts that were tedious. I may have enjoyed it more had I not read Percy Jac...

I liked it well enough but it probably my least favorite Rick Riordan book. Carter was a good character. I liked that he was home schooled and smart. Sadie had some attitudepersonality and some good quips but mostly annoyed me. She seemed bratty. The brother and sister duo are pretty cool. They set ...
Is this just Percy Jackson with Egyptian mythology? No. This is a completely different series with what I think is a different feeling to it.I was really disappointed that I could not get into the book at all. It’s not that the book was bad, I just couldn’t connect with it at all.I think I’ve narrow...
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE.I love that the narration switches between the brother/sister pair and that each character not only has a very distinct voice, those voices are very different from Percy Jackson and all three of those voices read very much like teens. It just speaks to Riordan’s mastery of the t...
