书籍简介

“埃及守护神系列”是雷克·来尔顿继“波西·杰克逊系列”之后的又一全新奇幻巨作。在浪漫希腊天神世界之后，莱尔顿延续他的说故事功力，以全新的主角、人物、神话故事与场景，打造出另一个迷人的埃及奇幻世界！

《凯恩与巨蛇之影》是该系列的终结。混沌蛇神阿波菲斯的阴影笼罩了整个世界，世界的秩序被破坏，混沌统治了大部分的地域。狮身羊头的斯芬克斯在大肆屠杀魔法师，上百恶魔在向着魔法世界的心脏不停发动着攻击，轮船般大小的河马拦住了前进的道路。拯救世界的方法，竟然是进入恶魔的家园，找出不知在何处的巨蛇之影，而为他们引路的，又是一个居心叵测的危险鬼魂？！面对着充满混沌力量的蛇神和日渐壮大的邪恶魔法师队伍，那个疯疯癫癫的太阳神老头子到底可靠吗？世界末日的到来真的无法阻止了吗？

站在埃及神话的大门外，《波西·杰克逊》作者雷克·来尔顿。用神奇的魔咒唤醒了两位少年内心隐藏的巨大能量，如同唤醒读者内心沉睡的勇敢之心。翻开本书，如同走进一个奇妙世界入口，神秘、冒险随之而来，勇气快乐随之而来，而这些，正是雷克·来尔顿送给读者的礼物。

The Kane Chronicles: The Serpent's Shadow is the final thrilling instalment in award-winning author and Percy Jackson creator Rick Riordan's Kane Chronicles trilogy. Is their inherited magic enough to battle against the most powerful mythical forces that Egypt's gods have to throw at them? CARTER AND SADIE KANE, descendants of the magical House of Life, are in pretty big trouble. Despite their bravest efforts, Apophis, the giant snake of Chaos, is still threatening to plunge the world into eternal darkness.

Now the Kanes must do something no magician has ever managed - defeat Apophis himself. No pressure there then. Battling against the forces of Chaos, their only hope is an ancient spell - but the magic has been lost for a millennia.
