Okay, first of all I have to say that I really liked the whole Kane Chronicles series and the characters . Of course Percy Jackson and the Heroes of Olympus are still the originals but it was definitely a cool new story with a cool new world and gods and this book was a good conclusion to the trilogy. The books all built up to this finale and it was a good finale that not only had action but also presented the conflicts of the various characters themselves well. Sadie and Carter are very good protagonists and were fun to read. Overall this series was good and I really enjoyed it. 

First of all the  story over the three books and the ending of Cartes and Zia’s story was super sweet and I'm glad that they finally got to go in a mall together. On the other hand the love story of Sadie and Anubis and  Walt was a bit crazy. So in the end the two guys were one person, which is bit wired, and also Sadie is only 13, and Anubis is thousands of years old and Walt is a sixteen-year-old boy, and there's quite a difference, so still a little crazy but also kind of sweet I guess. I'm glad that they were finally able to save the day. But it's a real shame that the gods have all been banished to heaven. But Carter has finally accepted his throne as Pharaoh, so it's a really exciting concept, and I hope we'll hear more about them in some other book, because I've already taken them very close to my heart, and the mum of the siblings also teased at the end that there are other gods, and they even talked about Long Island, the location of Camp of Blood. Also the children of Aphrodite, like Drew and Lacey were at the same school as the magicians!!
