On May 16th, Rick Riordan revealed that he finished writing the book on April 1st. On March 7th, the cover and first two chapters of the book were released. Editor Stephanie Lurie has confirmed that the Arrow of Dodona will appear in the book. In an interview, Rick Riordan stated that the book will have Camp Jupiter, Hazel Levesque, Frank Zhang, and Reyna Ramírez-Arellano. So, with heavy heart, Apollo (OK, Lester) and Meg have a triumvirate still to defeat, oracles to rescue, and prophecies to decipher, so that the world may be saved, and Lester may ascend into the heavens to become Apollo once again.īut, right now, Caligula is sailing to San Francisco to deal with Camp Jupiter personally, and they have to get their first. Though he and his friends (some of them) have emerged from the Burning Maze, rescued the Oracle and lived to fight another day, they can't escape the tragedy that has befallen them or the terrible trials still to face. But being an awkward mortal teenager is the least of his worries.

The former God Apollo, cast out by his father, Zeus, is having a pretty rough time of it.

someone even worse than the emperors Apollo has already faced. Unfortunately, the answer to their salvation lies in the forgotten tomb of a Roman ruler. Hazel, Reyna, Frank, Tyson, Ella, and many other old friends will need Apollo's aid to survive the onslaught.

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. On his path to restoring five ancient oracles and reclaiming his godly powers, Apollo (aka Lester Papadopoulos) has faced both triumphs and tragedies.

It's not easy being Apollo, especially when you've been turned into a human and banished from Olympus. 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.
