Some people have described this book as the Egyptian Percy Jackson, and I disagree. The story of Carter and Sadie are so very different. I loved the relationship between the siblings. They have basically been separated most of their lives and then forced on the run to save the world, recruit, and train new magicians. All while having to learn and teach themselves. Carter and Sadie are so smart and funny. I loved their banter throughout the book. This book tackled a few serious topics as well. The biggest con for me was that this book was so long. There were a ton of information.
