In Book 2 of the Kane Chronicles, Carter and Sadie Kane face growing opposition from the House of Life, and the stage is set for the final battle, to take place in Book 3.

• #1 New York Times best-seller

• Told in two points of view, one male and one female

• Ideal for middle grade listeners, but older listeners will enjoy it, too
• Soon to be adapted into a movie for Netflix, with Rick attached as producer

Ever since the gods of ancient Egypt were unleashed in the modern world, Carter Kane and his sister, Sadie, have been in trouble.

As descendants of the House of Life, the Kanes have some powers at their command, but the devious gods haven't given them time to master their skills at Brooklyn House, a training ground for young magicians.

And now their most threatening enemy yet—the Chaos snake, Apophis—is rising. If they don't prevent him from breaking free in a few days' time, the world will end. In other words, it's a typical week for the Kane family.

To have any chance of battling the forces of Chaos, the Kanes must revive the sun god, Ra. But that would be a feat more difficult than any magician has ever accomplished. First they have to search the world for the Book of Ra, then they have to learn how to chant its spells. Oh, and did we mention that no one knows where Ra is, exactly?

Narrated by two different wisecracking voices, featuring a large cast of new and unforgettable characters, and with adventures spanning the globe, this second installment of the Kane Chronicles is nothing short of a thrill ride.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Fans of the Riordan magic--equal parts danger, myth, and irreverence--will embrace this new series with open arms." — The Horn Book

Great narrative!

I felt transported to ancient Egypt through these kids adventures. learned more about the Egyptian culture and gods

Fanomanal

This book was so fantastic I love the way they told the story! Such a great preformance

wtf? happened to Sadie's voice

I've gone through most of Riordan's books. the performances are rarely anything special but don't interfere with the story. Sadie is LOUD!!! and sounds like she has a full on head cold and is highly distracting from the story. I have to go back often because her voice made me unfocused on what was being said. honestly Siri would do a better job.

The narrators are amazing

I think the story was very hard to follow if you don’t know Egyptian mythology and is kind of boring but the narrator’s performance made it all worth while

loooovvveee
