Racing against monsters, rogue emperors, and his own bruised ego, Apollo must restore the ancient Oracles before Olympus falls to ruin. Familiar demigods from Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter join the quest, delivering Riordan's trademark mix of mythology, humor, and heart. This set brings the saga together, ideal for fans of Percy Jackson and readers hungry for one more mythic adventure before Apollo's story reaches its conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAcross The Hidden Oracle, The Dark Prophecy, The Burning Maze, The Tyrant's Tomb, and The Tower of Nero, Rick Riordan reimagines Greek and Roman mythology through the eyes of a god learning to be human. Zeus strips Apollo of his powers and drops him into modern-day New York as a gawky sixteen-year-old, forcing him to serve a demigod master and prove himself worthy of reclaiming Olympus. The quest carries Apollo and his companions from a hidden oracle beneath Camp Half-Blood to the tunnels of Indianapolis, the wildfires of California, the catacombs of Rome, Louisiana, and finally back to New York for a last stand against the deified Roman emperors known as the Triumvirate. Familiar faces from Riordan's earlier series reappear alongside new heroes, including Meg McCaffrey, a fierce young demigod daughter of Demeter who becomes Apollo's reluctant partner in disaster. Each installment layers fresh prophecies, monstrous threats, and political intrigue onto Apollo's personal journey toward humility and self-understanding. Riordan balances laugh-out-loud banter with genuine emotional stakes, exploring identity, redemption, friendship, and the cost of power without losing his brisk, page-turning pace. Longtime readers will catch callbacks to Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus, while newcomers can still follow Apollo's fall and rise as a self-contained adventure. The five books build steadily toward an epic showdown, delivering satisfying growth for Apollo and his allies as the once-vain god learns what it truly means to be a hero.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete five-book Trials of Apollo saga in one collectible set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows a fan-favorite Percy Jackson universe storyline from start to finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlends Greek and Roman mythology with humor, action, and heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures a diverse cast of demigods alongside the once-mighty Apollo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for reluctant readers thanks to Riordan's fast, accessible pacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA ready-made gift set for birthdays, holidays, or classroom libraries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Hidden Oracle — Newly mortal Apollo, now called Lester, must serve a demigod at Camp Half-Blood and uncover why the camp's oracle has gone silent.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Dark Prophecy — Apollo and Meg head to Indianapolis to free the next oracle, facing griffins, sun gods gone rogue, and the sinister Triumvirate's growing reach.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Burning Maze — The search for a fire-wreathed oracle in the Labyrinth pulls Apollo into the deadly territory of Emperor Caligula and the wildfires of California.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Tyrant's Tomb — Apollo travels to Camp Jupiter to confront Emperor Commodus and protect the Roman demigods before the fifth oracle can be reached.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Tower of Nero — In the series finale, Apollo returns to New York for a last confrontation with Nero, racing to save the final oracle and his own fading godhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRick Riordan is the number-one New York Times bestselling author behind five mythology-inspired series for young readers, including Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Heroes of Olympus, and The Kane Chronicles. Often called the storyteller of the gods, Riordan spent fifteen years teaching English and history at public and private middle schools before turning to writing full time. He created the character of Percy Jackson to entertain his son, who has dyslexia and ADHD, and the series has since become a global phenomenon. Riordan lives in Boston with his family and continues to expand his beloved mythological universe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy You'll Love This Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPacked with humor, heart, and high-stakes mythology, this five-book set makes a fantastic gift for birthdays, holidays, or back-to-school reading.
