The Throne of Fire

Wow, I am so glad I am not reading Moneyball anymore. That quite
possibly could be one of the worst books that I have read in a while.
I was searching for a book, and I had already seen the Moneyball
movie, so I thought I would read the book. Turns out, the movie was
much better than the book. It was just really, really terrible. But
now I am reading a better book. A good one. It is called The Throne of
Fire, and it is by Rick Riordan. It is the second book in the series
called The Kane Chronicles. The first book is called The Red Pyramid.
It features 2 young kids named Carter and Sadie Kane. They are brother
and sister, but in the beginning, they were but they weren't brother
and sister. Technically, they were, but they never really saw each
other, so they sort of weren't. Carter, who at the time didn't know
about anything he would come to know, traveled around the world with
his dad, who said his job was an egyptian archeoligist, but is really
a magician. Sadie lived in England, with her grandparents, and her
cat, Muffin, who is really an Egyptian God named Bast. The first one
was a pretty good book, and I hope the second one will be better.
