Guess I'm partial to Egyptian mythology, after reading books like Harry Potter & Percy Jackson, Egyptian gods wasn't a fun read, it was boring, I felt like I was reading a history book rather than a fantasy one. There's a reason Septimus Heap didn't make it big & this along the lines, only made it as far as it has, because the author is Rock Riordan. Sure, I learned something about Egypt but I think I would've learned it some other way too. Didn't interest me at all, sorry :(

Excellent book and well worth reading! It was fun and enjoyable! It also contains within its pages little tidbits about Ancient Egypt which is amazingly good! If you are a fan of Rick Riordan, the Kane Chronicles or both (hopefully both!) then you will really enjoy this book as a great addition to your bookshelf!

Well, this is actually pretty informative. Perfect for learning about the ancient Egyptian gods.

Este es el libro compañero de la saga de mitología egipcia de Rick Riordan, y hay que haberse leído al menos dos libros para entender algunas referencias. Sin embargo el libro cuenta mas que todo datos sobre los egipcios, sus dioses, lugares importantes, elementos que usaban y para que servían, y aunque al principio es interesante conocer estos datos de forma sencilla, después de la mitad el libro se vuelve muy repetitivo y los datos se vuelven iguales por lo que deja de aportar.
Esta saga no es tan divertida como la de Percy Jackson, es muy diferente y en este libro se ve la diferencia, ya que el que es similar de Percy es mas gracioso, pero igual es un libro muy bonito, con buenos dibujos, gráficos e información en general para un niño que no sabe nada sobre esta mitología.
