The Red Pyramid discussion (00:27:37)
- We kick off with our The Red Pyramid chapter 29 discussion.
- Time to drive through Interstate 10 in Texas!
- Bast is great at “borrowing” vehicles–but don’t worry, no one will be missing this one. We think.
- Carter has a theory. What do we think of it?
- What does Kristen think is going on with Desjardins?
- Who would YOU trust to drive the vehicle?
- Sadie does NOT want Carter to ask her any questions.
- We get some great insight into what is going on with Bast.
- There’s NO WAY this will be relevant in the next chapter, right?
- Why did Anubis appear so hot to Sadie?
- Did Rick know what Bast’s plan was when he wrote this chapter?
- Carter needs some alone time with his sword BUT IT’S NOT WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE.
- Horus is great at talking when you don’t want him to and terrible at talking when you do.
- What does Kristen think of Zia’s motivations?
- Uh, what’s this about not trusting Amos??
- Favorite scenes and favorite lines, as always.
- Time for our Red Pyramid chapter 30 discussion.
- Cats love to pounce, even if driving to the top of a mountain is super inconvenient.
- Why does Carter feel like this place is familiar?
- They need to speak into the water to make Nepthys appear, but Carter and Khufu are not liking the vibes.
- Despite it being a quick interaction, the immigrant family crossing the boarder seems like a poignant part of this chapter given everything going on these days.
- Sadie goes down, so it’s Carter’s time to shine. Too bad he has to take on a 20-foot tall god names Sobek.
- Carter proves himself in the fight, especially because he’s able to control Horus.
- Bast is gone, but probably not forever. …Right!?
- They’ve still got problems, but at least Philip of Macedonia is there to save them!
- Oh, and Uncle Amos. But can they trust him??
- Favorite scenes and favorite lines.
