Apollo transformed as a teenager was interesting and made it possible for him to fit right in at Camp Half-Blood. Cameos of some of our favorite characters like Percy Jackson, Leo Valdez and Rachael Dare helped extend the plot to memories from previous adventures and let us keep up on what was going on in their lives and possibilities for future episodes. Short chapters made easy reading for short time periods when that was all that was available on some days. A good choice for #SummerReading when demands on time kept me moving around and the book came along for short brake periods.
The Trials of Apollo picks up a few months after the events of The Blood Of Olympus with a now human Apollo wandering the streets of New York. There he is lucky to meet Meg, a demi-god who can control trash? He doesn't understand it either. Luckily everyone's favorite salt water demigod is in the area. The story really starts to gain speed when Apollo gets help from Percy Jackson to reach Camp Halfblood where he hopes someone will have some answers. With two rage inducing brilliant twists at the end, The Trials of Apollo is the perfect addition to the ever growing Percy Jackson series.
