| Trials of Apollo Book 4 |
In his penultimate adventure, a devastated but determined Apollo travels to Camp Jupiter, where he must learn what it is to be a hero, or die trying.
It's not easy being Apollo, especially when you've been turned into a human and banished from Olympus. On his path to restoring five ancient oracles and reclaiming his godly powers, Apollo (aka Lester Papadopoulos) has faced both triumphs and tragedies. Now his journey takes him to Camp Jupiter in the San Francisco Bay Area, where the Roman demigods are preparing for a desperate last stand against the evil Triumvirate of Roman emperors. Hazel, Reyna, Frank, Tyson, Ella, and many other old friends will need Apollo's aid to survive the onslaught. Unfortunately, the answer to their salvation lies in the forgotten tomb of a Roman ruler . . . someone even worse than the emperors Apollo has already faced.

My Review: 5/5 Stars
The Burning Maze left us heartbroken and after waiting over a year and a half for The Tyrant's Tomb, well at least I can say it was worth the wait. A lot when down in the book. And I will say I was still emotional, especially in the beginning seeing as this book picked up where the last one left off, but there were plenty of fun and laughing moments. Apollo has changed a lot since The Hidden Oracle. He values the friends he has made along his journey and is willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he loses no one else. Now at Camp Jupiter, Apollo and Meg work with Frank, Hazel, and Reyna to prepare the legion for the emperors who will be arriving on the blood moon. The legion has lost a lot but their hope is gone just yet. There may be a way to turn the tides in the upcoming battle, Apollo just has to be ready for the sacrifice when it comes. Great, great book. Emotions were up and down and plenty of plot twists. And the surprises at the end? Just wow! One more book to go and I cannot wait to see how Riordan closes this series.
