riordan red pyramid

The creators of the New York Times best-selling Encyclopedia Prehistorica series offer a mythic look at the mysteries of the past with an entire pantheon of remarkable pop-ups.
For all of recorded history, humans have sought to understand Earthâ??s mysteries in the realm of the divine â?? and aspired to conduct themselves as heroes. Only gods, of course, could push the sun across the sky,forge entire continents, and impel mountains to touch the clouds. In this stunning volume, the incomparable team of Matthew Reinhart and Robert Sabuda take us to Ra-Atumâ??s land in Ancient Egypt; above the Grecian clouds to Zeusâ??s Mount Olympus; up to Norse god Odinâ??s frozen north; to the Far East, where the Jade Emperor sits in the heavens; into the wilds of Oceania, where Peleâ??s volcanic rage simmers below the earth; and to many more lands and times, all rich with sacred myths and legends.
