Description

Zeus has punished his son Apollo--god of the sun, music, archery, poetry, and more--by casting him down to earth in the form of a gawky, acne-covered sixteen-year-old mortal named Lester. The only way Apollo can reclaim his rightful place on Mount Olympus is by restoring several Oracles that have gone dark. What is affecting the Oracles, and how can Apollo/Lester do anything about them without his powers? After experiencing a series of dangerous--and frankly, humiliating--trials at Camp Half-Blood, Lester must now leave the relative safety of the demigod training ground and embark on a hair-raising journey across North America. Fortunately, what he lacks in godly graces he's gaining in new friendships--with heroes who will be very familiar to fans of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Heroes of Olympus series. Come along for what promises to be a harrowing, hilarious, and haiku-filled ride. . . .

    REPRESENTING MARGINALIZED IDENTITIES IS NOT PC INDOCTRINATION!!! This is a great book, and RR is a great author. I especially love how he includes lots of representation of marginalized identities. As an LGBTQIA+ individual, this makes me feel seen and included in the fantasy genre, which has painfully little representation. Sure, he may be doing it sort of heavy-handedly, but at least he’s trying, which is more than most authors are doing.
  • AMAZING!!

    I’ve read the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, The Hero’s of Olympus series, and THEY ARE THE BEST BOOKS IVE EVER READ!! (Plus they’re VERY humorous). I’ve read the Harry Potter series, the Chronicles of Narnia, and other popular book series but none have stuck out to me as much as this! I LOVE the books and I highly recommend reading them if you like nice, funny books. 😁

    Ok i absolutely loved this book and honestly thought it was better than the first, but the first was really good as well. We get 401 pages of Leo— *cough* I meant Apollo of course. He is the star character i suppose...anyways read the book if you haven’t please and thank you.
