Rick Riordan’s The Trials of Apollo series: The Tyrant’s Tomb

When we first started our journey with Rick Riordan’s books I didn’t know how my kids would do. We started our two oldest on the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books prior to the summer as a reading challenge and they quickly fell in love with the books. Plus they started to learn about things that were completely new to them like the Greek Gods, demigods, titans, monsters and mythology. Until then they had been reading mostly kids’ books about underpants, babysitting, and life according to a kid.

It was this jump into tween literature that sparked a fire under them and finally got them both reading more. I loved to see my non-reader finally want to read and my big reader voraciously tackled the series like a champ.

Author Rick Riordan has built an omniverse with all of his books being interconnected and we’ve moved on the new release from the Trials of Apollo series, The Tyrant’s Tomb.

This series covers the misadventures of Apollo after he was cast down from Olympus by his father Zeus after he angers him. Saying goodbye to his superpowers he is now a mortal teen boy named Lester Papadopoulos that lands in New York City and works towards surviving long enough to have his dad forgive him.
