Reading Log Post #2

Okay, sooooo I realized that I never finished the Throne of Fire and so I thought I should.  Besides, the new book in the series comes out soon.  :D  Wanna finish!

Book: Throne of Fire
Author: Rick Riordan
Pages: 74-446
Icons: Details and Ethics

For Details: Carter has found Zia again!  (Aww....)  But Zia doesn't remember any of their time together, since she was in a three-month coma.  The person that was once in a relationship with him was a shabti, or a clay figurine made for a helpful purpose.  The shabti Zia fell in love with Carter and he loved her back.  Unfortunately, the real Zia does not feel the same for him.  She watched her other self like a movie, but did not recieve any of her other's feelings.  I pity Carter.

For Ethics: The Egyptian Gods are...tricky.  They are extremely useful sometimes, mostly for helping Sadie and Carter use more powerful magic, and for helping the students keep energized, like when Ra comes and revitalizes everyone's spirits.  Of course, they can always be arrogant and snarky as well.  Horus, for example, is greedy and ambitious when it comes to his wants.  Isis is corrupted easily by power, and it's kind of her fault that the whole "senile-sun-god" thing happened.  Set is just plain evil.  Nehkbet and Babi don't believe Carter and Sadie.  God, gods can be irritating.
