The story follows two siblings, Carter and Sadie, after the death of their mother. Traveling with their father, an Egyptologist, they accidentally unleash the Egyptian god Set. Suddenly, everything falls apart and the rest of the Egyptian gods wake up. With their father missing and Set on their heals, the children head across the globe in search for answers. What they uncover is far more dangerous than they could ever have imagined; something that links their family to a secret order that has existed since the time of the Pharaohs.
For any fan of Riordan (or mythology), The Red Pyramid will not disappoint, so hurry and place your hold now! Personally, I'm a huge fan of Egyptology, so I can't wait for this series to start.
Hey, bloggers and readers...What do you think of Riordan's new book--are you excited? Any thoughts about the author Riordan venturing down a different Mythology road? Do you think this could be the next Percy craze? Comment away...

Love this review. I'm sure we'll have to order multiple copies of this!
I should have known PL would be on top of this already. I blogged about The Red Pyramid today, and I'm hoping the library will get it in soon after it's available!
Hi Susan! Looks like we've got a wait-list going already for this book (I'm not surprised!) I LOVE your blog!
Thanks! I'm glad you like it! And I was afraid that would be the case (about the wait-list). I might have to break down and buy it. :)
