| Summary/Abstract |
The two main protagonists are siblings Carter and Sadie Kane, the children of a famous Egyptologist, Julius Kane. After their mother’s death, they are separated, as Carter lives with his father while Sadie lives with their grandparents in England. On Christmas Eve, Dr. Kane and Carter visit Sadie. While they are in the British Museum, Dr. Kane accidentally releases the Egyptian god Set and his allies. Kane disappears and the children are taken in for questioning by the police. Soon, they discover that they are the descendants of the Pharaohs Narmer and Ramses. They realize that they have to battle the evil Set and his hordes to get their father back. This quest takes them on a perilous journey, where they encounter more Egyptian gods and other magical creatures and learn more secrets about their family.
