#BookReview: The Dark Prophecy (The Trials of Apollo, #2) by camphalfblood @DisneyHyperion #Giveaway

Welcome to the second post of today. If you are a fan of the Percy Jackson Series then check this one out! It was awesome! 
 
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—with heroes who will be very familiar to fans of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Heroes of Olympus series. Come along for what promises to be a harrowing, hilarious, and haiku-filled ride. . . .





Rick Riordan is an award-winning mystery writer. Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, Rick's first novel featuring the heroic young demigod, was the overall winner of the Red House Children's Book Award in 2006 and is now a blockbuster film franchise, starring Logan Lerman. Rick lives in Boston with his wife and two sons.


The Hidden Oracle was good this one was better.

This one wasn't as funny as book one but it was still good.  I had a lot of laughs in this one.  Characters in this one were fabulous and I couldn't put it down. This one had a ton of twists and turns and I loved everyone in this one.  If you loved the other series you will love this one even more.  I couldn't put it down and everything was almost perfect. I wish it would have been longer.
