The Red Pyramid


Author: Rick Riordan
Genre: Fantasy, adventure
Series: The Kane Chronicles
Number in series: 1st
My rating on a 1-10 scale: 8
Type: Fiction
Number of pages: 516
Time period: Present
My overall opinion: This is the first Rick Riordan that I haven’t enjoyed as much! I like the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series better. This one involved Egyptian gods and simply didn’t interest me as much. Also, I was bothered by semi-frequent use of God’s name as a swear word…in PJO, it’s always “gods” which doesn’t bother me as much. Here, it was a frequent annoyance. I’ll probably read the next book, but I’m not enjoying this series as much.
