Riordan has a field day … imparting Egyptian history as he weaves his spellbinding tale. Plenty of humor keeps things light… Readers will be clamoring for the next installment.‖ —Shelf Awareness About the Author Rick Riordan is the author of the New York Times #1 bestselling The Kane Chronicles, Book One: The Red Pyramid, as well as all the books in the New York Times #1 best-selling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series: The Lightning Thief; The Sea of Monsters; The Titan‟s Curse; The Battle of the Labyrinth; and The Last Olympian.
