How do you punish an immortal?
By making him human.
After angering his father Zeus, the god Apollo is cast down from Olympus. Weak and disorientated, 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 favour.
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.

I mean it's ok. I liked the new relationship of Apollo and his kids ( Will, Kayla and Austin) but like, why is he so self absorbed? And what's his obsession with Meg? Not the best compared to the Percy jackson book but still decent.

I would love to read the whole series in the order. This book is the 1st I read. I tried reading the last book but I got lost. So I would recommend the reader to read this in order. It is a very exciting book. I normally like fantasy fiction. This book is mostly about Greek mythology and magic...both which are my favourite topics

I liked it because it was similar to Percy Jackson & Apollo is one of my favourite gods. Anyone who likes the Percy Jackson books will like this.

My favourite person in the book was Apollo . Apollo went on lots of avengers adventures with Meg . I liked how there was an ants nest and a hidden oracle.I liked how Nero tried to destroy half camp blood. Failed and Meg betrayed Apollo and now is trying to capture Apollo .

This is a fantasy book. My favourite character is called Meg Meg is a daughter of Demeater (the goddess of the harvest). The most surprising bit of the story was when it showed that Meg was the bad emperor Nero's daughter. Nero tried burning a forest which is opposite of Goddess of Harvest / trees' principle.

I really enjoyed this book because it was so interesting and I always wanted to find out what was next. My favourite character was Meg because she is so funny and bossy.

I like when he becomes a teenager and has an adventure. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series.

Apollo is an interesting character as he doesn't really understand the life of mortal human beings. He seems quite ungrateful! I do like the fact that he take risks.
