About the Book

He's b-a-a-ack! Despite their best efforts, Carter and Sadie Kane can't seem to keep Apophis, the chaos snake, down. Now Apophis is threatening to plunge the world into eternal darkness, and the Kanes are faced with the impossible task of having to destroy him once and for all. Unfortunately, the magicians of the House of Life are on the brink of civil war, the gods are divided and disappearing, and the young initiates of Brooklyn House stand almost alone against the forces of chaos — with Walt, one of Carter and Sadie's most gifted initiates, doomed and already feeling his life force ebbing away.

The Kanes' only hope is an ancient spell that might turn the serpent's own shadow into a weapon, but the magic has been lost for a millennia. To find the answer they need, the Kanes must rely on the murderous ghost of a powerful magician who might be able to lead them to the serpent's shadow — or might lead them to their deaths in the depths of the underworld. Traveling to the 51st Nome in Dallas to secure a crucial magic scroll along the way, Carter and Sadie must bring the divided gods and magicians onto the same page before nothing less than the mortal world is lost, fulfilling their family's destiny in this thrilling conclusion to the Kane Chronicles.
