Overview
This complete Trials of Apollo collection reunites Rick Riordan's fan-favorite mythological world in one bundle. Once the radiant god of prophecy, Apollo is cast out of Olympus and dropped into New York City inside the awkward body of a teenage boy named Lester. Stripped of his powers, he must earn his way back to godhood by completing dangerous trials, outwitting rogue Roman emperors, and restoring the world's silenced oracles. Set across Camp Half-Blood, Camp Jupiter, and cities throughout the United States, the series blends adventure, humor, and real emotional growth for readers who loved Percy Jackson.
About the Books
Across six books, Rick Riordan expands the Percy Jackson universe by handing the spotlight to Apollo himself — a vain, self-absorbed Olympian forced to experience mortality firsthand. The Hidden Oracle opens with Apollo, now the gawky teenager Lester Papadopoulos, landing at Camp Half-Blood with no powers and a long list of enemies. In The Dark Prophecy he journeys to the American Midwest to battle vengeful wind spirits, while The Burning Maze sends him into a fiery underground labyrinth in Southern California to rescue a trapped oracle from the emperor Caligula. The Tyrant's Tomb shifts the action to Camp Jupiter, where Apollo and his allies defend the Roman camp from an even greater threat, and the series concludes in The Tower of Nero with a showdown in New York City against the emperor Nero. Rounding out the set, Camp Jupiter Classified: A Probatio's Journal offers a lighter, illustrated companion narrated by a new recruit, adding extra world-building alongside the main quest. Throughout, Riordan balances laugh-out-loud banter with genuine stakes, weaving in Greek and Roman mythology, found-family friendships, and a slow-burn redemption arc as Apollo learns humility the hard way. Long-time fans will spot familiar faces from earlier Riordan series along the way. Together, the six books form a complete arc from Apollo's disgrace to his hard-won return to Olympus.
