A review by daphx00
The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan
4.0
After reading and loving The Red Pyramid, I couldn’t wait to read the sequel and let me tell you; Carter and Sadie do not disappoint!
Rick Riordan does it again – with his brilliant sense of humor and amazing story telling, he writes yet another book that I thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend to anyone who likes to read adventure stories. Based on Egyptian mythology, we follow Carter and Sadie while they try to revive the Sun God without the help of Isis and Horus and it’s proving to be quite the task.
Like in the first book, we alternate between the two characters in reading the story; they both narrate every other chapter or so on the recording tapes and I love how they each have their own way of telling the story (even though they are both masters in using sarcasm) and how they are bickering throughout the entire book – but it doesn’t get annoying.
This is the second book in a trilogy and it has some of the in-between-books-characaristics, but nothing that bothered me while reading. I absolutely loved reading it and personally, I cannot wait to get my hands on the final book in this series.
My overall rating: 4/5
Four big fat stars for Carter and Sadie; and a promise to preorder your final adventure as soon as it’s available!
