The Hidden Oracle (The Trials of Apollo Book 1)

“A clash of mythic intrigues and centuries of pop culture to thrill die-hard and new fans alike.”–Kirkus“Riordan fans will find all of the key elements here: wisecracking narration, underdog kid turned hero (well, god turned underdog turned hero in this case), mythological core, and robust side characters who round out the field. This is familiar territory for Riordan, but the formula works so well, and Apollo is just so appealingly unpleasant, that there’s little to fault in this adventure.”–Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books“Riordan’s many fans will be thrilled with this return to the world of Percy Jackson and friends… This latest has Riordan’s signature wry narration, nonstop action, and mythology brought to life.”–School Library Journal
