so of course, I'm insta-buying anything with his name on it. Seriously, I love Percy Jackson, I love Heroes of Olympus, I love the Kane Chronicles, and I'm waiting with bated breath for Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard to start this fall with Swords of Summer. I may have an unhealthy obsession with Rick Riordan. This is a story for hard-core fans who have read both series. Percy had the same view of the elaborate preparations and esoteric knowledge of the Egyptian magic that I did when I read the Kane Chronicles series, and it was fun to see him have to adapt. Percy is still my favorite of all of the many characters Riordan has created and it was great to hear from him again. It's a fun premise and the best part is that the story is from Percy's first person point of view - something we haven't seen since the first Percy Jackson series that was completed in 2009. So, Riordan just invented a baddie that was going to follow in Ptolemy's footsteps, this time for evil and not for good. Seems Ptolemy was a historical figure that combined knowledge of the ancient Greeks and the Egyptians. Normally you're not supposed to "cross the streams" in fantasy literature, but Riordan did, logically and cleverly. Percy and Annabeth are Greek demi-gods, while Sadie and Kane are Egyptian magicians. This is a short story - about 64 pages that brings together the main characters of Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series with the brother and sister of the Kane Chronicle series. Dicho eso, espero que Rick Riordan viva muchos años para que escriba todo lo que necesito en mi vida: libros de mitología japonesa, escocesa y, además, una trilogía crossover con los griegos y los Kane. A pesar de que se conocen por dos ocasiones en las que han peleado contra monstruos horrorosos, lograron crear un lazo increíblemente fuerte y de camaradería que nunca van a perder. Y, de hecho, ya entiendo por qué en Brooklyn’s House Magicians Manual Setne empieza el libro encerrado en una bola de nieve tipo souvenir.Įn fin, poco más puedo decir de este relato diferente a que creo que los Kane y Percy y Annabeth hacen un equipo increíble. Me encantó ver cómo lograron combinar fuerzas y usar los poderes de la mitología contraria para poder enfrentarse a Setne. Puede estar enfrentándose a un mago milenario que está demente y quiere convertirse en un dios que fusione la mitología griega y la egipcia, pero de todas maneras Percy encuentra la forma de hacer que la situación se perciba como peligrosa, pero cómica.Ĭreo que este crossover de los Kane con Percy y Annabeth fue espectacular. ¡Amo los relatos que narra Percy! En serio, me fascina todo el humor con el que cuenta todo. ”I kissed her, because 1) when you’re a demigod going into battle, every kiss might be your last, and 2) I like kissing her”.
