Attention readers!!! There is a new series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rick Riordan!!! Rick Riordan has an ingenious way of breathing fresh life into ancient myths – bringing comedy, pop culture, and modern twists to the classic myth stories. His new book, The Trials of Apollo: The Hidden Oracle is in stores now! You can read an excerpt from the official site! Read on to find out more about the book, the FIVE special retail-specific book extras, and how you can WIN a copy!
About The Book:
After angering his father Zeus, the god Apollo is cast down from Olympus. Weak and disoriented, he lands in New York City as a regular teenage boy. 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.
But Apollo has many enemies—gods, monsters, and mortals who would love to see the former Olympian permanently destroyed. Apollo needs help, and he can think of only one place to go . . . an enclave of modern demigods known as Camp Half-Blood.
Check out the video trailer for this highly anticipated new series:
