Since his mother’s death six years ago, Carter Kane has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the globe with his father, the brilliant Egyptologist Dr. Julius Kane. But while Carter’s been homeschooled, his younger sister, Sadie, has been living with their grandparents in London. Sadie has just what Carter wants — school friends and a chance at a “normal” life. But Carter has just what Sadie longs for—time with their father. After six years of living apart, the siblings have almost nothing in common. Until now.
On Christmas Eve, Sadie and Carter are reunited when their father brings them to the British Museum, with a promise that he’s going to “make things right.” But all does not go according to plan: Carter and Sadie watch as Julius summons a mysterious figure, who quickly banishes their father and causes a fiery explosion.
Soon Carter and Sadie discover that the gods of Ancient Egypt are waking, and the worst of them—Set—has a frightening scheme. To save their father, they must embark on a dangerous journey—a quest that brings them ever closer to the truth about their family and its links to the House of Life, a secret order that has existed since the time of the pharaohs.

I really want to read this book my friend pieisawesome123 also has an account here on dogo and she told me that it's a cool book to read
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. It is so action packed and funny. I just couldn't put it down. I bought the rest of the series right then and there. I'm currently almost done the second book!
The Red Pyramid follows the Kane siblings. Their family comes from a long line of pharaohs, therefore they have the ability to become a vessel for gods. Their mother is dead, and there father is trapped in a box while harboring the god of death, Osiris. Carter and Sadie go on an adventure to save their father. They receive help from the most unexpected places, and are constantly surrounded with the possibility of their own death. How do you think they will overcome this wall?
I HAVE THE WHOLE SERIES
