The formerly glorious god Apollo, cast down to earth in punishment by Zeus, is now an awkward mortal teenager named Lester Papadopoulos. In order to regain his place on Mount Olympus, Lester must restore five Oracles that have gone dark. But he has to achieve this impossible task without having any godly powers and while being duty-bound to a confounding young daughter of Demeter named Meg. Thanks a lot, Dad. With the help of some demigod friends, Lester managed to survive his first two trials, one at Camp Half-Blood, and one in Indianapolis, where Meg received the Dark Prophecy. The words she uttered while seated on the Throne of Memory revealed that an evil triumvirate of Roman emperors plans to attack Camp Jupiter. While Leo flies ahead on Festus to warn the Roman camp, Lester and Meg must go through the Labyrinth to find the third emperor--and an Oracle who speaks in word puzzles--somewhere in the American Southwest. There is one glimmer of hope in the gloom-filled prophecy: The cloven guide alone the way does know. They will have a satyr companion, and Meg knows just who to call upon. . . .

With two particularly scary and dangerous trial already under his belt, Lester must now journey to the Labyrinth - a burning maze with an Oracle at its centre, who may just hold the key to a return to godly glory.

LA Times Bestseller Petaluma’s Copperfield’s Book Store Top Selling Titles Barnes & Noble’s Best Beach Reads WALL STREET JOURNAL-BEST SELLERS Hindustan Times-Nielsen Top 10 Lagi-lagi kaisar jahat. Apollo bosan (ketakutan juga, sebenarnya). Dia harus menyelamatkan Oracle ketiga yang disekap dalam kepungan Labirin Api yang membara dengan bantuan Grover, satir kesayangan Percy Jackson, serta Meg, majikan Apollo kini. Ya, tentu saja ada banyak rintangan. Dan tidak ada yang lebih membuat Apollo gemetar daripada menghadapi si Kuda milik kaisar terkejam dalam sejarah. Kuda gagah yang bisa bicara, luar biasa pintar, dan sama liciknya dengan sang Tuan. Ini pertarungan untuk memperebutkan tampuk kekuasaan di antara tiga dewata: sang Titan mantan Dewa Matahari; Apollo, Dewa Matahari yang untuk sementara dikutuk jadi manusia; dan kaisar gila yang berambisi ingin menjadi Dewa Matahari Baru. Apollo babak belur, tetapi Zeus tetap tidak berbelas kasihan, jadi Apollo terus saja melempar panah, coba-coba bernyanyi untuk meminta pertolongan, dan berharap mereka diselamatkan seorang pahlawan. Dan berani-beraninya si Oracle memberinya teka-teki padahal ini masalah hidup dan mati! Benar-benar tidak berperikedewaan!

Zeus has punished his son Apollo--god of the sun, music, archery, poetry, and more--by casting him down to earth in the form of a gawky, acne-covered sixteen-year-old mortal named Lester. The only way Apollo can reclaim his rightful place on Mount Olympus is by restoring several Oracles that have gone dark. What is affecting the Oracles, and how can Apollo/Lester do anything about them without his powers? After experiencing a series of dangerous--and frankly, humiliating--trials at Camp Half-Blood, Lester must now leave the relative safety of the demigod training ground and embark on a hair-raising journey across North America. Somewhere in the American Midwest, he and his companions must find the most dangerous Oracle from ancient times: a haunted cave that may hold answers for Apollo in his quest to become a god again--if it doesn't kill him or drive him insane first. Standing in Apollo's way is the second member of the evil Triumvirate, a Roman emperor whose love of bloodshed and spectacle makes even Nero look tame. To survive the encounter, Apollo will need the help of son of Hephaestus Leo Valdez, the now-mortal sorceress Calypso, the bronze dragon Festus, and other unexpected allies--some familiar, some new--from the world of demigods. Come along for what promises to be a harrowing, hilarious, and haiku-filled ride. . . . Includes the first chapter of The Trials of Apollo Book 3: THE BURNING MAZE, plus the first chapters of two Rick Riordan Presents novels: THE STORM RUNNER by J. C. Cervantes, based on Mayan mythology, and DRAGON PEARL by Yoon Ha Lee, a space opera with elements of Korean mythology.

Rick Riordan's Norse hero faces his greatest challenge yet in the final instalment of the series. Loki the trickster god is free from his chains. Now he's readying Naglfar, the Ship of the Dead, armed with a host of giants and zombies, to sail against the Norse gods and begin the final battle of Ragnarok. It's up to Magnus Chase and his friends to stop Loki's plans, but to do so they will have to sail across the oceans of Midgard, Jotunheim and Niflheim in a desperate race to reach Naglfar before it's ready to sail on Midsummer's Day. Along the way, they will face angry sea gods, hostile giants, and an evil fire-breathing dragon who happens to be a former acquaintance. But Magnus's biggest challenge will be facing his own inner demons. To defeat Loki, Magnus will need to use words, not force. This will require finding a magical elixir so deadly that it will either make Magnus Chase powerful enough to out-talk the silver-tongued Loki, or destroy Magnus utterly.
