Average rating
The third book in the latest series from international bestselling author, Rick Riordan
He was a God once. Until he was cast out his father, Zeus. Now, he’s an awkward teenager.
Called Lester.
The only way out is a series of scary and dangerous trials, of course.
For his third trial, Apollo must journey through the Labyrinth to free an Oracle who only speaks in puzzles.
Then, defeat the most vicious of three very vicious Roman Emperors.
(All without the use of his godly powers.)
It looks like he will need all the help he can get – from some new and old friends.

I thought that it was very adventurous and full of very important morals .Also the way the emperor acts is horrible because when his servants do something wrong ,he kills them. My favourite characters were Piper,Lester a.k.a Apollo and Jason(RIP).I would recommend this book for people who like books which show heroic deeds people did and are very adventurous.

Cool and funny! But I cried at the end when Jason died… my favorite character is RARA (Reyna)! She’s fearless and brave: the perfect girl warrior.

I loved this book as it made me feel a variety of feelings. It surprises you with shocking twists and brings back characters from recent series such as Heroes of Olympus and the Percy Jackson series. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys mythology.

The book, The Trials of Apollo, is about the God Apollo, who has been transformed to a mortal (human) by his father, Zeus. Apollo, and some of his friends, travelled through the maze to save the oracle, and they had to deafest the evil roman emperor. I liked the book because it was a bit adventurous and I love greek mythology. But, I didn't really enjoy the book much, as I wasn't that interested in it. My favourite character was piper, because she is a very strong character and most people wouldn't think she is strong/brave because she is a daughter of Aphrodite.I would recommend the book to people who like greek mythology/history.
