This Trials of Apollo collection is a four-book series written by acclaimed author Rick Riordan. The series takes place in the same universe as Riordan's other popular series, including Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Heroes of Olympus, and Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard. The Trials of Apollo is a thrilling adventure series that is sure to captivate readers of all ages. The series follows the story of Apollo, the god of the sun, music, and prophecy. After the events of the previous series, Apollo is punished by Zeus and transformed into a mortal teenager named Lester Papadopoulos. With no godly powers, Apollo must learn to survive in the mortal world and complete a series of dangerous trials to regain his godly status. The first book in the series, The Hidden Oracle, introduces readers to Lester, who is now a sixteen-year-old boy living in New York City. He quickly learns that he is in grave danger from his immortal enemies, who are seeking revenge on him for his past actions. Lester is forced to seek refuge at Camp Half-Blood, a summer camp for demigods, where he meets familiar faces from the previous series. The second book, The Dark Prophecy, takes Apollo and his companions on a dangerous quest to find the next Oracle of Delphi. Along the way, they must face deadly monsters, treacherous gods, and a powerful villain who is determined to destroy them. In the third book, The Burning Maze, Apollo and his friends must enter the treacherous Labyrinth to save a friend and stop the evil emperor Nero from unleashing a devastating plague upon the world. The fourth book, The Tyrant's Tomb, takes place in California, where Apollo and his companions must face off against the ruthless Roman emperors and protect a sacred tomb from being desecrated. One of the strengths of The Trials of Apollo series is its well-drawn characters. Apollo is a flawed and complex protagonist, who must learn humility and compassion in order to regain his godly status. The supporting characters are equally well-drawn, with each one having their own unique personality and backstory. Fans of the previous series will be delighted to see familiar faces, as well as new characters that are just as engaging and memorable. The series also explores a number of themes, including friendship, loyalty, and the importance of standing up for what is right. The characters face difficult moral dilemmas, and they must learn to work together and support each other in order to overcome their challenges. Another strength of the series is its use of mythology. Riordan has a talent for weaving together ancient myths and modern-day storytelling, and The Trials of Apollo is no exception. The series is filled with references to Greek and Roman mythology, and it is sure to spark the imagination of young readers. The books are also filled with action and adventure.
