Author: Rick Riordan

ONE CURSE. TWO HEROES. FIVE DAYS TO SAVE THE WORLD.

THE GRIFFIN FIXED
its hungry eyes on Sadie . . . 'Sadie,' I said, 'drop the scroll.'
'Hello? It's stuck to my hand!' she protested.
'And I'm on fire! Did I mention that?'

The scroll seemed to have triggered every reservoir of Egyptian magic in the room. Walt and Jaz stood frozen in shock. I suppose I couldn't blame them. This was their first real monster. It took a step towards my sister.

EVER SINCE THE GODS
of Ancient Egypt were unleashed on the modern world, Carter Kane and his sister, Sadie, have been in trouble. As descendants of the magical House of Life, they command certain powers. But now a terrifying enemy – Apophis, the giant snake of chaos – is rising.
If Carter and Sadie don't destroy him, the world will end in five days time. And in order to battle the forces of chaos, they musty revive the sun god Ra – a feat no magician has ever achieved. First they must search the world for the three sections of the Book of Ra, then they have to learn how to chant the spells . . .
Can the Kanes destroy Apophis before he swallows the sun and plunges the earth into darkness . . . forever?

The Egyptian gods are waking in the modern world . . .
