Beschreibung

Lester and his friends travel to the American Midwest in Book Two of Rick Riordan's uproarious Trials of Apollo series, now in paperback.

"A clash of mythic intrigues and centuries of pop culture to thrill die-hard and new fans alike."--Kirkus Reviews

#1 New York Times best-selling series Rick Riordan is considered the "storyteller of the gods" because of his five #1 New York Times bestselling series based on mythology A continuation of the Percy Jackson saga, but it also stands alone A new take on Greek and Roman mythology from the point of view of a fallen god Brings back beloved demigod characters from the Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series Introduces new demigods Villains are based on Roman emperors Features a diverse cast with people from all kinds of backgrounds and lifestyles Perfect for middle schoolers but can be enjoyed by older readers, too

Zeus has punished his son Apollo--god of the sun, music, archery, poetry, and more--by casting him down to earth in the form of a gawky, acne-covered sixteen-year-old mortal named Lester.

The only way Apollo can reclaim his rightful place on Mount Olympus is by restoring several Oracles that have gone dark. What is affecting the Oracles, and how can Apollo/Lester do anything about them without his powers?

After experiencing a series of dangerous--and frankly, humiliating--trials at Camp Half-Blood, Lester must now leave the relative safety of the demigod training ground and embark on a hair-raising journey across North America.

Somewhere in the American Midwest, he and his companions must find the most dangerous Oracle from ancient times: a haunted cave that may hold answers for Apollo in his quest to become a god again--if it doesn't kill him or drive him insane first.

This paperback includes the first chapter of The Trials of Apollo Book 3: THE BURNING MAZE, plus the first chapters of two Rick Riordan Presents novels.

It kept me awake during the Ketamine infusion and that means a lot! It made me chuckle every now and then, and made feel good!

3.5* Leider hat mir der zweite Teil der Reihe rund um Apollo nicht ganz so gut gefallen wie der erste. Das Problem lag dabei hauptsächlich darin, dass ich irgendwie nicht so richtig in die Geschichte rein gekommen bin und das Buch sogar zwischendurch mal für einige Tage zur Seite legen musste da ich auch irgendwie gerade nicht so in der Stimmung war für das Buch. Ich hatte irgendwie das Gefühl, dass alles sehr vorhersehbar ablief und die Geschichte einfach zu sehr nach einer alt bekannten Formel ablief, mir fehlte etwas die Überraschung. Dennoch hat mir das Buch insgesamt gut gefallen. Apollo ist einfach ein toller Erzähler und der Humor war wieder unschlagbar. Auch die Nebenfiguren fand ich sehr gelungen, Leo mochte ich ja sowieso schon immer und auch Meg ist mir schon echt ans Herz gewachsen, aber auch all die neuen Figuren waren sehr gelungen. Ich mag auch sehr wie diverse die Figuren in Rick Riordans Bücher sind. Ausserdem ist Rick Riordan auch einfach super darin mythologische Elemente spannend in die Geschichte einzubauen und ich habe noch immer jedes Mal das Gefühl wieder einiges zu lernen. Ich finde hier besonders gelungen wie Apollo die Geschichten erinnert (oder auch nicht mehr erinnert) in die er selbst verwickelt war...

3,5 Sterne. Ich liebe ja die Bücher rund um percy jackson und seine Freunde. Die Apollo Bücher sind ebenfalls gut, kommen aber nicht an die anderen heran, wie ich finde.

4.5 stars I really liked this less than the Hidden Oracle despite of Apollos slightly toned down personality. Old Apollo I could not stand (I didn't like him in the previous series either). Granted I can like a series despite not liking the main characters, it does effect my rating here a little bit. And that's because of the short seperations of the character groups. I didn't like the "only x people can go" strategy here and these mini quests were entertainable but I would have liked a huge consistent quest more. Because of this the "main showdown" felt flat for me.
