About the Books
This paperback boxed set brings together all three volumes of The Kane Chronicles, Rick Riordan's trilogy that reimagines ancient Egyptian mythology through a contemporary lens. The story follows Carter and Sadie Kane, siblings raised apart after their mother's death, who are thrown together when their Egyptologist father accidentally releases the god Set during a night at the British Museum. Discovering they carry the blood of the pharaohs, Carter and Sadie must learn to control dangerous magical abilities while racing against time to rescue their father and prevent Set from seizing world-ending power. Across the trilogy, the siblings journey from the streets of Brooklyn to the depths of the Duat, encountering gods, monsters, and unexpected allies drawn from Egyptian lore. Told through alternating first-person narration, the books balance quick banter and comic timing with genuine emotional stakes around family, loss, and responsibility. As the series builds toward its climactic finale in The Serpent's Shadow, Carter and Sadie must finally choose between safety and sacrifice to protect the world they've come to understand and the people they love most. Riordan's meticulous research into Egyptian mythology grounds the fantastical plot in real historical detail, giving curious readers a springboard into ancient history alongside the thrills. Fans of fast-paced, myth-inspired adventure will find a satisfying, complete trilogy that rewards attentive reading and offers plenty of humor along the way.
