Book description
The Red Pyramid: Where Ancient Gods Meet Modern Chaos
Rick Riordan has done it again-taken ancient mythology and turned it into pure audiobook gold. If you thought Greek gods were dramatic, wait until you meet their Egyptian cousins!
Carter and Sadie Kane are about as siblingly as oil and water, and that's before their Egyptologist dad accidentally unleashes chaos in the British Museum. One minute they're having a family reunion, the next they're watching their father get banished by a mysterious figure and setting off explosions that would make any insurance adjuster weep.
What follows is your typical family quest-except instead of searching for Dad at the local park, these kids are dodging ancient gods with anger management issues. Specifically, Set (not the nice biblical guy) has big plans that apparently don't include keeping families intact.
Riordan's genius lies in making 3,000-year-old mythology feel fresh and hilarious. Carter and Sadie aren't just dealing with typical teenage drama-they've got actual divine drama. The audiobook format really shines here, bringing the chaos to life in a way that'll have you checking behind your shoulder for rogue gods.
The real magic? Despite all the supernatural mayhem, it's still fundamentally about family-messy, complicated, and occasionally explosive family. Just maybe not literally explosive like the Kanes.
Perfect for anyone who's ever wondered what would happen if their family reunion went completely off the rails and into the realm of the impossible.
