Brought to you by Puffin.
The second audiobook in the latest series from international bestselling author, Rick Riordan
He was once an immortal God, now he's an awkward teenager. Things aren't going well for Apollo.
There's only one way he can earn back Zeus' favour, and that's to seek and restore the ancient oracles - but that's easier said than done.
Apollo must head to the American Midwest where, rumour has it, a haunted cave may hold answers.
There are a few things standing in his way though. The cave could kill him, or drive him insane.
Oh, and a Roman Emperor, whose love of bloodshed makes Nero look tame.
To stay alive, Apollo needs the help of a mortal goddess, a bronze dragon, and some familiar faces from Camp Half-Blood.
Will he survive the greatest challenge of his four thousand year existence?

      Narrator Robbie Daymond is perfectly tuned in as events take a darker turn in this sequel to THE HIDDEN ORACLE. Trapped in a mortal teenaged body and continuing on his quest set out by Zeus, Apollo is forced to remember and relive painful moments from his past. He experiences heartbreak and humility yet maintains his godly self-absorption, which, in Daymond's capable performance, is eminently charming. Listeners will root for Apollo whether he's reciting haikus or doing something heroic in spite of himself. Daymond also provides distinct voices for the large cast of Apollo's comrades and enemies, but it's Apollo himself who shines brightest. There's plenty of adventure and humor here, and listeners will finish this installment already eager for the next one. J.M.D. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
