Overview
Follow Apollo's fall from Mount Olympus to the streets of New York City in this complete five-book paperback collection from Rick Riordan's Trials of Apollo series. Stripped of his godly powers and forced into the body of an awkward teenage boy, Apollo must complete dangerous quests to earn back his immortality. Packed with Greek and Roman mythology, sharp humor, and fast-paced action, this set follows Apollo through The Hidden Oracle, The Dark Prophecy, The Burning Maze, The Tyrant's Tomb, and The Tower of Nero, delivering a satisfying conclusion to the wider Percy Jackson universe.
About the Books
The Trials of Apollo begins with a bang: the god Apollo, cast down by his father Zeus for a past transgression, wakes up as an awkward sixteen-year-old mortal named Lester Papadopoulos in a Manhattan alley. To reclaim his place among the gods, he must serve a demigod master, restore the ancient Oracles, and defeat the mysterious Triumvirate, a trio of resurrected Roman emperors bent on total domination. Across five books, Apollo journeys from Camp Half-Blood to the Grove of Dodona, into the Labyrinth-scarred wilds of the Burning Maze, through the fields of Camp Jupiter, and finally back to New York for a last stand against his oldest enemies. Along the way he teams up with familiar faces from Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Heroes of Olympus, alongside a colorful new cast including Meg McCaffrey, his fiercely loyal demigod companion. Riordan blends genuine wit and self-deprecating humor with real stakes, as Apollo is forced to confront his own vanity, learn humility, and discover what it truly means to be a hero rather than a god. Fans of mythology, found-family stories, and quick-witted banter will find each installment builds on the last, escalating in danger and emotional depth while never losing its trademark humor. It's a rewarding, complete arc for longtime Riordanverse readers and a strong entry point for new fans discovering the series.
