All 3 kids read The Red Pyramid with great enthusiasm. They thoroughly enjoyed it.

Good story but I couldn't listen to more than 1 chapter due to the awful narration of both the male & female.

I read a couple of chapters of this book at the bookstore, found it an intriguing concept, and downloaded the audio version upon returning home. Unfortunately, only the first two chapters are interesting. Whatever mystery, history, or story line exists is soon smothered by repetitive, running battles between the gods of Egypt and the teenage protagonists. If you must read it, borrow it from the public library.

The book was entertaining but probably more for a younger reader/listner. I did enjoy the book but seemed to be a bit like Harry Potter.

Cute story for kids, I didn't realize it was a kids book until I started to listen. I did listen to the whole thing, but would recommend for adult listening.

I read several reviews for this book before buying it, so I was aware of the debate going on regarding the voice of Sadie. Some people thought the voice to be so bad that it was distracting, while others were not bothered at all, and rather enjoyed Sadie's voice. After listening to this book for over six hours I have to conclude that the problem with this book has nothing to do with voice quality at all. The problem is that this book is dark! The main characters have demons living in them! Magical powers are fun on the Disney level, but when Carter has a demon speak for him, from inside his body, the book danced a little too close to demonic without any hope of a living God to balance things out. They would quote the bible for relevance, totally leaving out the hope that comes from an all-powerful God. I wouldn't have minded my kids listening to a book about demons, if there were a good guy (God) challenging him; but this book is not about good and evil, it is about varying levels of chaos in the demonic realms. Very dark. Wish someone would have warned me before I bought it.

I was pretty excited about this series, because I'm a huge fan of the Percy Jackson books, but The Red Pyramid was disappointing. It was entertaining enough when the female character was narrating, but Carter Kane is so boring (the male narrator did a good job, I just thought Carter was a boring character), I found myself not caring what happened. I guess that's how I felt about the entire book. I just didn't care much about any of the characters, and thought the "quest" itself was really boring. So far, this series just doesn't have the intensity and the emotional impact of Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I almost didn't make it through the entire book, but made myself finish since I had used a credit for it. I won't continue with this series when the next books come out. To summarize: Percy Jackson fans, don't get your hopes up - this is a let down.

The plot was very drawn out, all minutia of Egyptian mythology included where a few main focal points should have been chosen carefully.

I feel the author should have attempted to be more precise in his selections of elements from mythology to use and focus in the plot line. The book was too long and detailed. Not fun to listen to.

The male performance was ok. The female performance was horridly inauthentic. Didn't sound like the appropriate age, the British accent was audibly forced, and the delivery suffered greatly.
