Percy Jackson fans will eagerly take to this new series, and Daymond's entertaining narration only adds to the fun. Narrator Daymond's narration is delightful: lively and comical, he perfectly captures the lovably conceited and pompous Apollo, who is constantly being brought down a peg in his humiliating human state, and creates memorable voices for a myriad of creatures, including gurgly, raspy plague ghouls, an authoritative centaur, and a grain spirit in the form of a wailing baby.
He is forced to serve a 12-year-old demigod girl who just recently discovered her powers, faces danger from an ongoing series of mythological creatures trying to kill him, and attempts to solve the mystery of why the Oracle of Delphi has gone silent. See the complete The Trials of Apollo series book list in order, box sets or omnibus editions, and companion titles. In this book, the first in Riordan's Trials of Apollo series (a spin-off of his bestselling Percy Jackson series), the god Apollo is punished by Zeus and sent to Earth in the form of a gawky teenage boy. So, with heavy heart, Apollo (OK, Lester) and Meg have a triumvirate still to defeat, oracles to rescue, and prophecies to decipher, so that the world may be saved, and Lester may ascend into the heavens to become Apollo once again.īut, right now, Caligula is sailing to San Francisco to deal with Camp Jupiter personally, and they have to get there first. Though he and some of his friends have emerged from the Burning Maze, rescued the Oracle and lived to fight another day, they can’t escape the tragedy that has befallen them, or the terrible trials still to face. But being an awkward mortal teenager is the least of his worries right now. Well, for one thing, he’s been turned into a human and banished from Olympus.
But Apollo has many enemies-gods, monsters, and mortals who would love to see the former Olympian. Now, without his godly powers, the four-thousand-year-old deity must learn to survive in the modern world until he can somehow find a way to regain Zeus’s favor. The former God Apollo is having a pretty rough time of it. Weak and disoriented, he lands in New York City as a regular teenage boy. Things are getting very bad, very fast, for Apollo.
