Book-by-Book Guide:
The Red Pyramid begins with a perilous family disaster that reveals Carter and Sadie Kane are part of a powerful magical lineage. When an explosion uncovers a hidden secret, the siblings quickly realize deities walk the streets of the modern world. The Red Pyramid follows their uneasy partnership as they learn to wield ancient magic, face terrifying adversaries, and confront the chaos unleashed by Set, a god determined to rewrite reality. A fresh, high-stakes start to Riordan’s Egyptian adventures, this book blends brisk action with sibling dynamics and the responsibility that comes with power.
The Throne of Fire escalates the Kanes’ trials as the gods awaken and the world edges toward catastrophe.

It finishes the trilogy with a pulse-pounding blend of myth, friendship, and courage.
The Sword of Summer kicks off Magnus Chase’s Norse journey in the bustling streets of Boston.
