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?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter experiencing a series of dangerousamp;mdash;and frankly, humiliatingamp;mdash;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 againamp;mdash;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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo 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 alliesamp;mdash;some familiar, some newamp;mdash;from the world of demigods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCome along for what promises to be a harrowing, hilarious, and haiku-filled ride. . . .\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47104430342384,"sku":"2940169265293","price":27.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169265293_p0.jpg?v=1763771904","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169265293","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
