Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan
Hi, I am Advik. I love to read, write, bike, swim, and watch TV.
Throne of Fire, the second book in the Kane Chronicles, is a compelling blend of Egyptian mythology and modern-day action. This book follows Sadie and Carter Kane in their continued fights against the forces of Chaos.
Sadie and Carter are forced to prevent the end of the world in a very timely manner after being tormented by reoccurring dreams and messages that hint at Apophis’ approaching return. The sun god Ra’s power is the only thing that can stop Apophis, the Lord of Chaos, from rising from his eons-long confinement. The two siblings, who set out on a dangerous adventure, must find the three missing pieces of the Book of Ra, which hold the secret to waking him. They travel the world on this mission, facing challenging opponents and formidable allies. Sadie and Carter discover more about their magical skills and family history as they travel down this difficult path.
Throne of Fire is just as exciting and high energy as the last book. Riordan has an exceptional talent for blending humor, mythology, suspense, and action into one fantastic series. The characters are relatable and very well thought out. I especially loved the way Riordan combines the modern-day world into this story. Overall, this book is impressive; you can tell Riordan thought about the world and characters quite a lot. Readers who like other Rick Riordan stories, such as Percy Jackson or The Heroes of Olympus, will especially love this book.
