The Kane Chronicles Trivia Questions

1. What are Carter and Sadie supposed to steal - er, borrow - from the Brooklyn Museum?

From Quiz
The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: A statue

When the book opens, Sadie, Carter, and Khufu the baboon are standing on the roof of the Brooklyn Museum. Their two new recruits, Walt and Jaz (Jasmine) are there with them. They are supposed to get a statue from the museum, which, according to the god Horus from Carter's dreams, will help them save the world from the Chaos snake, Apophis.

2. What is the name of Carter and Sadie's father?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: Julius

Julius is an Egyptologist (a person who studies relics, hieroglyphics, etc.) from ancient Egypt. He travels to Egypt with Carter, while Sadie, Carter's younger sister, is left at home in London, England. She lives with her grandparents. Amos is Carter and Sadie's uncle, introduced later in the book. Kane is their family name. And Seth is another name for Set, god of chaos and evil.

3. What is the name of the boy who is one of the narrators of the book?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Carter

Carter is the brother of Sadie and is possessed by Horus. Horus is the Egyptian god of war. Carter is better with combat, unlike Sadie who is better with magic.

4. Who is the first person to speak in the story?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Carter

Julius, Sadie and Carter's father, is the second person to speak. Ruby is their mother who died before.

5. How many parts is the Book of Ra divided into?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: Three

The Book of Ra was divided into three parts for safekeeping. Each of the three parts represented one of the three aspects of Ra - dawn/morning, midday, and evening. Sadie locates the first part of the Book, hidden in an old statue at the Brooklyn Museum.

6. Which ancient Egyptian god did Julius attempt to summon, using the Rosetta Stone?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: Osiris

Osiris was the Egyptian god of the underworld. Julius did succeed in summoning Osiris, but he also got the "other four"; Set (god of chaos), Nephthys (goddess of rivers and funerals), Isis (goddess of magic), and Horus (god of war and hunting). Julius ended up hosting the god Osiris, Sadie hosted Isis, and Carter hosted Horus. Zia (a character who was not yet introduced at the time) hosted Nephthys. Set did not need a host, as his life force on Earth was connected to his red pyramid in Arizona.

7. What is the item that causes you to burn up if you lie?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Feather of Truth

The Feather of Truth will burn up anyone who holds it and lies. In the story, Sadie doesn't realize she's lying, but she is because there is a slight pain in the hand where the Feather of Truth is. She accidentally lies because Zia thinks Amos is possessed by Set, but Sadie says she doesn't. Deep down in her heart, though, she does.

8. Sadie Kane has lived with her grandparents since her mother died. What accent does she have?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: British

Sadie has lived with her grandparents in England for so long that she has a British accent even though she wasn't born with it.

9. During Carter's class, what creature invaded the classroom?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: A winged, fire-breathing, three-headed serpent

The winged, fire-breathing, three-headed serpent busted through the floor of the classroom. It spoke with Apophis' voice, and it warned Carter to "give up his foolish quest". To get rid of it, Felix threw his left shoe at one of the monster's heads. Walt blasted another head with his wand and turned it to stone. Julian tossed his sword and hacked off the monster's third head. Then Alyssa ordered a couple of statues to completely wipe out the snake. Carter ended up having to tell everyone that the snake was just a test to keep them from panicking. He did tell his uncle Amos about it though.

10. What color are the hieroglyphics that glow above Sadie's hand whenever she casts a spell?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: Gold

Sadie's spell hieroglyphs are gold. When Carter notices this, Sadie guesses that everyone has a different color and jokes that maybe Carter's color is hot pink. Julius and Amos Kane's hieroglyph spells are blue, and silver hieroglyphs do not appear in the book.

11. What's the name of the one possessed by Apophis?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Face of Horror

Face of Horror was the servant of Set. He had been possessing Apophis all the time. Nobody noticed it until the end. Apophis is the god of chaos. You may get confused between Set and Apophis since Set is the god of evil.

12. During the book, Carter and Sadie find out that they are hosting gods. Which gods are they hosting?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Carter is hosting Horus, and Sadie is hosting Isis

Horus and Carter are constantly fighting for control during most of the book. Isis and Sadie fight for control too, just not as much.

13. What's the name of the spirit that leaves you when you sleep?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Ba

Carter's Ba never wants to stay inside. This is deadly because if you sleep long without it, you'll die. Sadie's also goes exploring. These are explanations of the wrong answers. A shabati is a wax figurine. With a certain phrase, you could have it help you with jobs, physical or informative. A ren is your secret name. For example, Set's ren was Evil Day. Last, a godling is a person who is possessed by a god. Carter was a godling because of Horus.

14. Set is the god of what?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: chaos

Anubis is the god of funerals. Thoth is the god of wisdom. Serqet is the goddess of scorpions.

15. According to Amos, who is the third-most powerful Egyptian magician in the world?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: Vladimir Menshikov

Vladimir Menshikov is the third-most powerful magician in the world. The Chief Lector (at this point, Desjardins) is the most powerful. And Amos, though he does not mention it, is the second-most powerful, making him the next-in-line for the position of Chief Lector.

16. Which ancient goddess does Desjardins, the Chief Lector, summon when he wishes to prevent Amos, Zia, and the children escaping him?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: Sekhmet

Sekhmet was a much-feared goddess, considered a demon, and was depicted as either a lioness or a woman with a lioness' head. In ancient Egypt, she was said to be a goddess of war. Zia tricks Sekhmet by having the ship land in a Magic Salsa factory and then telling Sekhmet that the salsa is blood. Sekhmet drinks and drinks the salsa until she falls asleep, and Carter, Sadie, Zia, and Amos escape.

17. What's one thing Amos likes to wear?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Shades

He always wears shades and a fedora. He also wears a coat.

18. Who is the real villain in the book?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Apophis

All through the book, everyone thought that Set was the bad guy, even Set himself, but his chief demon was Apophis in disguise, who was giving Set all of his evil ideas.

19. Which two gods possessed Sadie's grandparents and attacked her on her birthday when she went to London?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: Nekhbet and Babi

Sadie is taking the day off and visiting her grandparents in London because it is her birthday. When she gets there, Nekhbet is waiting for her, possessing Sadie's grandmother. Nekhbet tells Sadie that she (Nekhbet) and Babi are going to kill her. Sadie's response is to ask, "You've got a god named Bobby?"

20. Who is the crocodile god who kills Bast and sends her back to the Duat?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: Sobek

Sobek was the god of water as well as crocodiles. He has the head of a crocodile. In ancient Egypt, some temples would have moats around them where live crocodiles were kept to honor Sobek. Like Sekhmet, Sobek was feared and considered a demon.

21. What's the name of Amos's sibling?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Julius

Julius is Carter and Sadie's dad. Their mom is dead. Carter grew up with his dad more than Sadie did. When Julius died, Carter was more sad than Sadie was. Sadie lived with her grandparents in England and only got to see her dad twice a year.

22. What is a shabti?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: a small statue that was placed in an ancient Egyptian tomb

Shabtis were very important in ancient Egypt. Not only were they placed in tombs, but they could come to life and would be used for the things that they were built for.

23. What is the name of the village where Zia is sleeping? (The English translation, not the Egyptian name).

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: The Place of Red Sands

Apophis, possessing a spirit inside the Brooklyn Museum at night, tells Carter this at the beginning of the book. He also mentions that "she will die there if you continue this foolish quest."

24. Who is Set's host?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: He doesn't have one

Careful - while Set did try to influence Amos, Amos actually never did host Set. Rather, Set attempted to control/posses him. In the book, Set does not have a host. His life force is connected to the red pyramid that is being built for him. And while Zia, Carter, and Sadie do suspect Desjardins of being Set's host, they never confirm their suspicion.

25. Who is the husband of Isis?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Osiris

Osiris was the reason Julius went into the Rosetta Stone. He wanted to get the king into this world again.

26. When Sadie and Carter are being chased by the Set animal, the mortals see it differently than what it really is. What do the mortals see?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: a rabid moose

Right when Bast, Sadie, and Carter were about to get on the plane, the Set animal, or Leroy, charges in, and a woman screams, "Rabid moose!"

27. According to the god Set, what did Ra use as a base for Apophis' prison?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire

Answer: Bat dung

When Vladimir Menshikov summons Set, he demands to know how to break Apophis' prison. Set beats around the bush a bit, talking about the delicious food that the gods ate at the victory feast, but eventually, he agrees to cooperate. He tells Menshikov, "Yes...what did Ra use for a base? Bat dung?"

28. Who is the serpent of chaos?

From Quiz The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid

Answer: Apophis

In the book, Apophis is described as being "over a mile long and nearly 100 meters wide". The ancient Egyptians believed that Apophis was attempting to devour Ra's sun boat whenever they saw the red sky at sunset. Sadie realizes that Apophis is the real enemy, and that he has been possessing Set's closest minion, Face of Horror, and manipulating Set to help Apophis rise. Apophis is also known as Apep.

29. Who got attacked by the scorpions?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Bast

Bast, the goddess of cats, fought them off. She accompanied Carter and Sadie. It says in the book that if Bast were to be attacked in cat form, that would've been the end of her.

30. In the book, Anubis is seen as two different things to Sadie and Carter. What did Sadie see? How about Carter?

From Quiz The Red Pyramid

Answer: Sadie saw a teenage boy, Carter saw a giant jackal headed god

Until the end, Carter saw Anubis as a giant jackal headed god. Sadie saw him in dreams where her ba left her, and developed a crush on him. The only time she didn't see him as a teenage boy was when he made his first appearance in the hall of judgement as a regular jackal.
