Throne of Fire

Second in Rick Riordan's Kane Chronicles series is The Throne of Fire, situated three months after the previous book.

In this book, things get a bit more complicated.

For one thing, Carter and Sadie have opened up their home in New York for training new magicians, so there are more characters to get to know.

Added to that, Sadie's caught in a love triangle because she has a huge crush on one of her students and yet is also majorly crushing on a god she met in the last book.

To continue the love drama, Carter is also head over heels - for a girl who doesn't remember him at all.

On a different note, shout-out to Sadie for her birthday! The world is ending, and she insists on taking the day off to celebrate her birthday.

And I suppose I should mention the main quest for this book: to retrieve the sun god Ra. He disappeared forever ago, and no one knows where he went. But Carter and Sadie are determined to find him, convinced that Ra could be their only hope against the Chaos snake Apophis.

In the meantime, stuff happens. Dramatic, life-threatening stuff. So let's all climb aboard putting our lives in the hands of two teens who can scarcely stop arguing with each other and everyone else in their entire universe! Yah!
