Brother dear," I said, "did your soul leave your body while Amos was talking, or did you actually hear him? Egyptian gods real. Red Lord bad. Red Lord's birthday: very soon, very bad. House of Life: fussy magicians who hate our family because dad was a bit of a rebel, whom you could take a lesson from. Which leaves us-just us-with Dad missing, an evil god about to destroy the world, and an uncle who just jumped off the building-and I can't actually blame him." I took a breath. {Yes, Carter, I do have to breathe occasionally.}
