The Red Pyramid (Kane Chronicles #1) by Rick Riordan

Paperback – Disney Hyperion – April 2018 – 514 pages

Ever since their mother’s death, Carter and Sadie have become near-strangers. While Sadie has lived with their grandparents in London, Carter has traveled the world with their father, the brilliant Egyptologist Dr. Julius Kane.

Then one night, Dr. Kane brings the siblings together for a ‘research experiment’ at the British Museum, where he hopes to set things right for his family. Instead, he unleashes an Egyptian god who banishes him to oblivion and forces the children to flee for their lives.

Soon, Sadie and Carter discover that the gods of Egypt are waking, and the worst of them — Set — has set his sights on the Kanes. To stop him, the siblings embark on a dangerous journey across the globe — a quest that brings them ever closer to the truth about their family and their links to a secret order that has existed since the time of the pharaohs.

This edition includes the bonus short story “The Son of Sobek”.
