    • This is it! We’re here to talk about the final chapter of The Red Pyramid and then make our predictions for what may come next.
    • A lot happened in the last two chapters, so we do a mini recap.
    • Carter gets the last POV chapter!
    • The kids (and Amos) return to Brooklyn and are greeted by an enthusiastic Khufu.
    • Muffin is safe and comfortable, and everyone gets a spot to sleep amongst the rubble. How thoughtful.
    • It takes a while to rebuild the mansion, and each sibling has their own strength.
    • Amos is still struggling with what happened to him, and we totally understand why–it was such a violation.
    • Who is the real Amos and will we get to see him in Book 2?
    • The amulets are safe, and we wonder what it’ll be like when the kids are actually ready to host the gods again.
    • Why can Carter see Anubis in his human form now?
    • It must be so weird to see their old home in L.A.
    • We were right about Julius, Osiris, and the Underworld throne!
    • The banter between Anubis and Sadie is what romance books are made of!
    • The situation with Julius is complicated to say the least, though we understand why he did what he did.
    • Ruby shows up and we learn that she was kind of there with Isis when Sadie was hosting the goddess.
    • Horus takes the throne of the gods and no one challenges him.
    • Then all the gods bow to the Kanes. ZEUS WOULD NEVER.
    • The gods restored the mansion, which is super nice, but we all know what we were really hoping for.
    • Amos is leaving to go back to the House of Life and leaving the kids on their own.
    • Except Bast is totally back!
    • Carter thinks Sadie will want to go back to her grandparents, but she’s totally going to stay with him in Brooklyn.
    • We really loved the end of this book and how it hints to more coming soon.
    • What were our favorite lines and favorite moments?
    • What can we expect in Book 2?
    • We can’t wait to see the new recruits!
    • Carter is totally going to track down the real Zia.
    • The next book is titled The Throne of Fire, and we have a pretty good idea of what that could mean.
      • Feedback (01:12:05)

      • Thank you to Moon for sending in cute pictures of their kitty, Oreo!
