When young magicians Carter and Sadie Kane learned how to follow the path of the Ancient Egyptian gods, they knew they would play an important role in restoring order to the world. What they didn't know is just how chaotic their world would become. The Chaos snake Apophis is loose and threatening Earth imminent destruction. The magicians are divided. The gods are disappearing, and those who remain are weak. What are a couple of teenagers and a handful of young trainees to do?

In the thrilling conclusion to ‘The Kane Chronicles’, Carter and Sadie know that there is only one way to stop Apophis, but it is so difficult that it could cost the siblings their lives. It involves trusting the ghost of a psychopathic magician not to betray them, or worse, kill them. They'd have to be crazy to try it. Well, call them crazy...
