![]() ![]() Apollo reveals to Leo that he actually made Hemithea and her sister, Parthenos, goddesses after fleeing their father, Staphylus, the king of Naxos and a demigod of Dionysus. The emperor, referred to as the "New Hercules" according to Nero, took over the city last year, but his forces can't locate the Waystation. A strong woman named Josephine is in the grand hall working at a welding station. There is a kids' room filled with sinister drawings on the wall. Hemithea (Emmie left) and Josephine (Jo right) She takes them to to the Waystation, a hidden refuge above the Union Station for demigods and Hunters of Artemis where they can take shelter. Even though Leo attempted to fight back with a bulldozer, the trio is finally saved by an elderly woman named Hemithea, Emmie for short. ![]() A ghost wearing cheese-colored clothes assists them in running away to a circular plaza. Almost immediately after getting off the Indiana Statehouse, they are attacked by Nanette with her fellow Blemmyae on Washington Street, forced to leave Festus sleeping as a suitcase behind, and flee into an alley. Plot BlemmyaeĪpollo, still as a human named Lester Papadopoulos, arrives in Indianapolis on Leo Valdez's dragon, Festus, along with Leo himself and the now mortal Calypso. The cover and excerpt of the first chapter of this book were released on December 22, 2016. Rick Riordan announced that he would be creating a new series on his The Sword of Summer tour, where he announced the title of his new book. Come along with Apollo and Leo for what promises to be a harrowing, hilarious, and haiku-filled ride. Fortunately, what he lacks in godly graces he’s gaining in new friendships–with heroes who will be very familiar to the fans of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Heroes of Olympus series.

The only way Apollo can reclaim his rightful place on Mount Olympus is by restoring several Oracles that have gone dark.

Nor could I imagine why Meg McCaffrey would be sent here to capture me. I could think of no reason why an evil triumvirate of ancient Roman emperors would take interest in such a location. And, no, Hera, why would I be talking about you?) After falling to earth in New York City, I found Indianapolis desolate and uninspiring, as if one proper New Y ork neighborhood-Midt own, perhaps-had been stretched out to encompass the entire area of Manhattan, then relieved of two-thirds of its population and vigorously power-washed. ![]() (Not the yummy kind of licorice, either the nasty variety that sits for eons in your stepmother’ s candy bowl on the coffee table. Around us rose a meager cluster of downtown high-rises-stacks of stone and glass like lay- ered wedges of black and white licorice. Indiana was flat country-highways crisscrossing scrubby brown plains, shadows of winter clouds floating above urban sprawl. “Apollo, just try, will you?
