The third book in the latest series from international bestselling author, Rick Riordan
He was a God once. Until he was cast out his father, Zeus. Now, he’s an awkward teenager.
Called Lester.
The only way out is a series of scary and dangerous trials, of course.
For his third trial, Apollo must journey through the Labyrinth to free an Oracle who only speaks in puzzles.
Then, defeat the most vicious of three very vicious Roman Emperors.
(All without the use of his godly powers.)
It looks like he will need all the help he can get – from some new and old friends.

Another 5* review. Really enjoying this series if books. This is my favourite so far if the series.
Really interesting. Good
Good! So Sad aswell. Jason Died :(
Need new help
Just fabulous, Rick Riordan is no.1 story teller
I thought that it was very adventurous and full of very important morals .Also the way the emperor acts is horrible because when his servants do something wrong ,he kills them. My favourite characters were Piper,Lester a.k.a Apollo and Jason(RIP).I would recommend this book for people who like books which show heroic deeds people did and are very adventurous.
It was a good book not my favourite but still good.
Funny but dangerous
I think that the book was fun. I liked Apollo and Herophile most. I would recommend it to someone else.
Cool and funny! But I cried at the end when Jason died… my favorite character is RARA (Reyna)! She’s fearless and brave: the perfect girl warrior.
I loved this book as it made me feel a variety of feelings. It surprises you with shocking twists and brings back characters from recent series such as Heroes of Olympus and the Percy Jackson series. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys mythology.
This book is amazing, I like the author, the setting, the characters... I could go on forever
The book is very good and very funny
Amazing book. It grips your attention and keeps it.
this book was amazing! it was really good because there ws lots of drama and adventure. i think it should be a 9+book though. i loved it so much and you should definitely read the whole series.
The book, The Trials of Apollo, is about the God Apollo, who has been transformed to a mortal (human) by his father, Zeus. Apollo, and some of his friends, travelled through the maze to save the oracle, and they had to deafest the evil roman emperor.
I liked the book because it was a bit adventurous and I love greek mythology. But, I didn't really enjoy the book much, as I wasn't that interested in it. My favourite character was piper, because she is a very strong character and most people wouldn't think she is strong/brave because she is a daughter of Aphrodite.I would recommend the book to people who like greek mythology/history.
There are a lot of plots in this novel which combines myths and the modern world. My favourite character is Lester because he is funny and a useful source of information. I would recommend this book for ages 11 plus because some aspects of it are grim.
I love zombies and I liked the turning into zombies
This book was truly a sad book a tale of despair multiple people died for this quest this is a book that's says a message loud and clear
No one is safe.
It is a bit gloomy but overall it is a good read because it is adventurous and a bit of a mixture of myth in the story too. In this story Apollo has already been sent down to earth as a punishment from his father Zeus so he has to face challenges against emperors in the particular story they don't understand at the start who the emperor is but they work through the maze and finds the oracle and you'll have to read to see what else happens . It is a really amazing read with lots of obstacles and things you don't expect in the book .
My favourite character is Piper because she is courageous. I'd recommend this book to someone because its full of magic and myth.
I enjoyed this book because it is full of unexpected twists and turns. I would recommend it for anyone above the age of 10. My favourite character was Meg as she is always making jokes.
The best part is when they defeat Medea.
To good to be true! Would recommend this book.
I really enjoyed this book, with Meg, Apollo, Jason Grace and Piper mclean it was a fun-filled roller coaster. My favorite character has to be Apollo because he makes lots of references and witty comments. I would recommend this to anybody who likes greek mythology.
This book was awesome. Anyone who enjoyed Percy Jackson would love this. Another great book by Rick Riordan!
This book is super duper good! Apollo, Meg, and Grover (a satyr and one of Percy's best friends) go in the "Burning Maze" a.k.a the Ladybrinth to find the 3rd oracle. On the way, they meet Piper Mclean a few months ago broke up with Jason Grace. Piper helps them through their adventures but leaves them for a bit after Jason dies and saves Apollo's life. I recommend this book to people who love action and mythical books.
P.S A satyr is half man half goat.
I enjoyed this book as much as the other Trials of Apollo books. I enjoy reading about Greek and Roman mythology.
