Perfect for you if...

You grew up with Percy Jackson and want to revisit that world with a fresh protagonist who's genuinely out of his depth.
You enjoy stories where overpowered characters lose everything and have to actually work to solve problems.
You like humour grounded in mythology, with a narrator who's arrogant enough to be funny when reality humbles him.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer standalone stories and don't want to commit to another long series set in an established universe.
You're looking for dark or gritty fantasy. This is lighthearted middle-grade adventure with jokes and heart.
You haven't read the original Percy Jackson series and don't want to start a universe that builds on decades of prior books.

About this book

After angering his father Zeus, the god Apollo is cast down from Olympus as punishment. Weak and disoriented, he lands in New York City as a regular teenage boy, stripped of his godly powers. The four-thousand-year-old deity must learn to survive in the modern world and find a way to regain Zeus's favor. Apollo faces many enemies—gods, monsters, and mortals who seek his destruction. Needing help, he travels to Camp Half-Blood, an enclave of modern demigods, as his only option for survival and redemption.
