What if you discovered your family was descended from ancient Egyptian pharaohs and possessed god-like powers? For siblings Carter and Sadie Kane, this isn't a hypothetical. When their Egyptologist father unleashes the fire god Set, they're thrown into a hidden world of magic and monsters. You'll follow their thrilling race against time as they learn to harness their inherited abilities, navigate the treacherous world of Egyptian gods living in the modern day, and uncover a secret society of magicians. They must master ancient spells and battle mythical creatures to save their father and stop Set from destroying the world.
