Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Blake chooses to ride the Wheel of Ra next. His body resists entering the ride, which is a spinning ride that holds its riders against its walls with gravity. When the ride spins so fast that Blake can’t pull himself from the wall, the scene changes: He finds himself standing against a pillar in a large Egyptian temple. Guards chase and shackle the other riders as Blake escapes.
Blake stops running when he sees another boy caught by a guard’s whip. He frees the boy and manages to wrap the whip around the guard’s neck. Other riders call for him to kill the guard, but Blake allows him to live. He flees the temple to find himself in an ornate, mythological Ancient Egypt.
Blake tries to sneak through the city, but he’s stopped by a man selling idols. At first, he dismisses the seller; a glimpse at an idol of King Tut causes him to take a second look. The pharaoh’s face is Quinn’s. His brother’s face is also on statues all around the city.
A guard takes Blake to Quinn’s palace. Quinn is thrilled with his position as king. Blake reminds Quinn that one of King Tut’s own advisers murdered him.
