The dark prophecy
Riordan, Rick
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 do anything about them without his powers? After experiencing a series of dangerous -- and frankly
humiliating -- trials at Camp Half-Blood
Apollo must now leave the relative safety of the demigod training ground and embark on a hair-raising journey across North America. Fortunately
what he lacks in godly graces he's gaining in new friendships.
