I loved this series like all the others... I felt bad for Sadie for her problem with Walt but the end was nice.. Carter also experienced something good after what happened in the second book. overall it was a good book and a good end to the series.

While I don’t think it’s better than the 2nd book in the series; it’s a good conclusion to a pretty dang good series. Riordan is a good author and the books are aged up, but I think what keeps this particular book from being rated more highly for me is that a good number of the plot points and “twists” were predictable and guessable. However, the characters and main plot are interesting; predictability is okay so long as you make it interesting and honestly, Rick has usually done that well or at least well enough! Alot of good points in this book and makes me curious about Egyptian mythology
I did this book a great disservice by not rereading the first two Kane Chronicle books before I sat down to read it. As a result, I went in a bit blind, with only the foggiest memories of what had been set up in previous books. But I enjoyed this a great deal: Carter's and Sadie's bickering narration is still amusing, and the book had Riordan's usual mix of humor and adventure. I still don't find this series quite as engaging at Percy Jackson ones (I am a lot less invested in the characters, and will probably forget most of the details of this book by the end of the week). On a side note,
Spoiler
I am intrigued by some end-of-book references to other gods and magicians, which would seem to open up the possibility of a crossover with Riordan's other series. I am both tempted and horrified by the prospect.
Idk. I think I wanted to like the Kane Chronicles more than I actually did. I’m glad I finished it, but I don’t see myself returning to them the next time I’m reading PJO. I think Carter and Sadie are cool characters and I like the idea of Egyptian gods is super cool, but it just wasn’t for me I guess.
