Disney Book Group sent me a copy to check out and is partnering with me for a giveaway!
Back in 2016 I shared about a new series entitled “The Trials of Apollo” by the author of five #1 New York Times best-selling middle-grade series with millions of copies sold throughout the world: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Heroes of Olympus, and the Trials of Apollo, based on Greek and Roman mythology; the Kane Chronicles, based on Ancient Egyptian mythology; and Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, based on Norse mythology.
Now “The Trials of Apollo” is on its fourth book in the series with “The Tyrant’s Tomb.”

About The Trials of Apollo series
After angering his father Zeus, the god Apollo is cast down from Olympus. He lands in New York City as a mortal teenage boy. Now, without his godly powers, the deity must learn to survive in the modern world until he can somehow find a way to regain Zeus’s favor.
Book 1: The Hidden Oracle
Book 2: The Dark Prophecy
Book 3: The Burning Maze
Book 4: The Tyrant’s Tomb
About The Tyrant’s Tomb
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.

He lives in Boston, Massachusetts with his wife and two sons. Follow him on Twitter at @camphalfblood.AN OLYMPIAN COMES TO EARTH: The protagonist is nothing less than Apollo himself! Well, actually, he’s a mortal sixteen-year-old trying to earn his way back into Zeus’s favor by restoring five oracles. How will he manage without his godly powers?
A GODLY POV: Apollo narrates the adventure; the disparity between his godly assumptions and his disappointing reality is hilarious.
FAVORITE DEMIGODS ARE BACK!: All the beloved characters from the Roman Camp Jupiter will aid Apollo in his quest.
VIPEROUS VILLAINS complicate matters for our heroes as they search for the ancient Oracles.
DIVERSITY: As always, Rick includes characters from all kinds of backgrounds.
