by Rick Riordan
These days, I spend most of my free time reading Doctor Who fanfiction on a nearly daily basis. However, there are still published authors that I am following - one of them being Rick Riordan, who churns out 2 books a year in an irritatingly reliable fashion. Like clockwork. How he does it, I have n...
This book was fine. It was an average Rick Riordan book, I didn’t love it but I think I’ll pick up the next one because they are light and fun but at this point I’ll looking for a shakeup. Most of this book feels like Percy Jackson the reboot. Also I don’t Love Apollo, he seems like such an obvious ...
This story happens after The Heroes of Olympus series. You don't necessarily have to read Percy Jackson and The Olympians and The Heroes of Olympus first, but I would highly recommend it. It is a continuation of that storyline. Percy, Nico and some of the other characters pop up a few times. Cam...
Only 361 pages? Riordan is taking it easy on his readers. And maybe himself. Anyway, following the events of The Heroes of Olympus, Zeus is a little displeased with Apollo and demonstrates this by turning him into a human teen (read: YA/MG novel star) and casting him to earth. He appears to be ful...
Rick Riordan has a tendency to just write variations on all the same characters. This book is no exception. Apollo is Percy Jackson if someone decided to inflate Percy Jackson's head to one-hundred times it's original size. I liked Percy. I liked Magnus Chase. I liked Leo Valdez. They may be the sam...
I'm uncertain about the rating, but for now it's four stars. It was good. Enjoyable. I really liked it. But did I love it? No. I did not. My expectations were so high that of course I'm left feeling slightly disappointed. I DID enjoy it though- don't get me wrong! Ahahaha, man there were so many f...
I LOVE books about Greek Gods. The modern twist made it even better. This is a new author for me and I look forward to reading more of his books.
I think that The Trials of Apollo was a very surprising book. This book was surprising because I never expected Meg to leave Apollo and side with Nero after she had just saved the Grove of Dodona. I was also shocked by the group of Roman emperors, or Trimunitive, that were discovered to have survive...
After being terribly disappointed with [b:The Sword of Summer|15724396|The Sword of Summer (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, #1)|Rick Riordan|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1434701340s/15724396.jpg|21400019], I found this novel featuring a mortal Apollo a pleasant surprise. Quite a few of everyon...
When I first heard about Riordan releasing series about Apollo, I was pretty excited. I didn't know what Riordan prepared for Apollo but I really didn't care. I do like the fact that Riordan expanded his series with Norse mythology, however, the original Greek demigods still have a special place in ...
