Ancient tombs

The book i read is part of series called tomb quest this was the first book of the series it was called Tomb Quest: Book of the Dead. Throughout the book a kid names Alex has to go around with his best friend Ren to find his mom after she was kidnapped from her job at the museum by, an ancient Egyptian death cult because they want to open the door to the afterlife. Alex and Ren encounter some very interesting people on the quest to find his mom.
My favorite part about this book was when they venture into the manmade tomb in the subway, and its filled with traps and scorpions. I find it so facinating that the tomb had elaborate traps, and that it was modeled after actual egyptian tombs.
