The Red Pyramid: the first audiobook in Rick Riordan's The Kane Chronicles.

Percy Jackson fought Greek Gods. Now the Gods of Egypt are waking in the modern world...

'I GUESS IT STARTED THE NIGHT OUR DAD BLEW UP THE BRITISH MUSEUM . . .'

CARTER AND SADIE KANE'S dad is a brilliant Egyptologist with a secret plan that goes horribly wrong. An explosion shatters the ancient Rosetta stone and unleashes Set, the evil god of chaos . . .

Set imprisons Dr Kane in a golden coffin and Carter and Sadie must run for their lives. To save their dad, they embark on a terrifying quest from Cairo to Paris to the American South-west and discover the truth about their family's connection to the House of Life: an Egyptian temple of magic that has existed for thousands of years.

The pharaohs of ancient Egypt are far from dead and buried. And neither, unfortunately, are their gods . . .

Rick Riordan has now sold an incredible 55 million copies of his books worldwide

good

It's perfect,but you might want to listen to it again, because the book can be hard to understand.

Yassss

The book was great love the characters and I love the fact that there are 2 narrators within was very smart. One of my problems is that Saidie is kind of a "Merry Sue" and I wish the author balanced her character a bit.

Love the two narrators

Both the narrators capture the Kane siblings’ voices and personalities so well! It was a brilliant choice to have a male and female to narrate the switch in POV, especially one with American and the other with British accent, since that is exactly what is portrayed of the Kane siblings raised apart. Both narrators could change their voices and accents to portray different characters. Very enjoyable!
