If you loved how Carter and Sadie discover they’re tied to Egyptian gods, crash the British Museum, and tangle with Set and the House of Life, you’ll click with the way Sophie and Josh Newman are swept into a war among immortals when Nicholas Flamel and Dr. John Dee bring alchemy and Elder deities roaring back into present-day streets. Like the Kanes’ run-ins with Bast and the Duat, you’ll get globe-trotting chases, spellcraft rooted in real myth, and big showdowns where mythic power shatters the ordinary.

The bantering, switch-off narration between Carter and Sadie—arguing over who tells which part while racing to stop Set’s red pyramid—has a perfect echo here: you follow Jason, Piper, and Leo as each POV adds crucial pieces to a rescue mission involving Hera, storm spirits, and a bronze dragon. If the sibling back-and-forth and complementary magic of the Kanes worked for you, this trio’s interlocking perspectives and puzzle-box quest will feel just right.

Enjoyed Sadie’s snark during museum break-ins, Bast’s cat jokes mid-fight, and the general wisecracking even as the Kanes face Set and the House of Life? Magnus Chase narrates with that same laugh-out-loud energy while dealing with Norse doomsday stakes—expect a talking sword with opinions, a hotel for fallen warriors, and Loki’s schemes, all delivered with the kind of comic timing that made the Kanes’ chaos so fun.

If the mix of Brooklyn House logistics, London museums, and Egyptian gods wreaking havoc in ordinary places was your jam, you’ll love how Mesopotamian myth crashes into modern New York. When Nergal targets Sikander Aziz and his family, the street-level stakes feel like when the Kanes juggle school-day normalcy with Duat dangers—fast fights, clever allies, and a city backdrop that turns divine showdowns into neighborhood problems.

Remember the Kanes’ sprint to derail Set’s construction of the red pyramid before his timetable comes due? Zane Obispo gets thrust into a Mayan-myth gauntlet where he has to outpace Ah-Puch’s awakening, zip from volcanoes to hidden realms, and make split-second calls with new powers and trickster allies. It’s that same breathless tempo—monsters now, answers later—that kept Carter and Sadie moving.
