Other than a character dying (which was very sad), this was such a great book! I would recommend this book for ages 10+.
Puffin The Burning Maze, The Trials Apollo Book 3 (Hardcover)

Book Reviews (26)
Read this book. ITS AMAZING. Read it. You won't regret it. But read Percy Jackson, The Heros of Olympus, and the first two Trials of Apollo first. And again, even though it is not as good as the other Trials, it is MINDBLOWING. Stop reading this and read IT. Seriously, stop reading this and go to a library.
Quests, as Apollo learns in this book, are both extraordinarily tiring and super dangerous. Apollo is currently on a quest to defeat 3 emperors, also known as a triumvirate., and also restore 5 important prophecy-saying oracles. If the emperors get hold of even one oracle for too long, bad things will happen. Apollo has met of the emperors and killed none. He has, however, freed two oracles from the evil emperors. When Apollo met the previous oracle, he made Apollo's friend Meg issue a disturbing prophecy. The prophecy basically states that the roman demigod camp, Camp Jupiter is under attack. Also, Apollo and Meg must find the third emperor, who has a white horse, and get the third oracle from him. However, this mission will be harder than ever before. The third oracle is trapped in a burning maze, and the evil emperor wants to steal Apollo's godly essence and become a god himself. This time, will Appolo succeed? I liked the books in this series because they contain a reference that contains all the terms used in the story, so if you suddenly forgot something, you can just see it there. Also, the author begins the book very engagingly, unlike some other authors. This book is perfect for people who like books that contain mythology.
Wow. I definitely wasn't prepared for that ending (I won't spoil it!). In the third book of 'The Trials of Apollo' series, the former Greek god Apollo still has no powers since his not so glorious fall from the sky . . . into a dumpster. So far, he has restored two Oracles and received a prophecy that means nonsense. Now, Apollo and his pushy twelve year old master Meg Mccaffrey journey through the Labyrinth and The Burning Maze to restore Aeithales from all the fires. But first, they need to find the third emperor, stop him, and use his shoes to get through the maze. Rick Riordan's humorous adventure continues, action packed as always, with important quests. There is victory, explosions, prophecies, fire, mystery, and well, what all good quests have. I highly recommend you read this book (and the whole series), but first read the 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians' series and 'The Heroes of Olympus' series or you won't know some of the characters. Overall, I highly enjoyed this book.
I am reading that book right now! I just finished the one before it! Do you like it too! I do, if you haven't then you better its awesome!
Megan McCaffrey and Lester Papadopoulos, alias Apollo, have to free the Sybill,an Oracle trapped in the Labyrinth. This book did have good action and suspense, which makes it a good book.

This book is very thematic and has an amazing adventure with a satry, a former god in a human body, and a demigod of Demeter. As the trio is going through the maze The Labyrinth while trying to get to southern California. While in the maze they run into many casualties. They find out that killer birds try to kill them but they luckily getaway. Near the end of the story, they find the Sybly. Will they trio free the Sybly? Will Meg ever find out what those seeds are for? Will Apollo ever become a god again? Read the Burning Maze to find out. I would suggest this book for sixth and seventh graders.
I want to read this book so badly! I need to find it in a library near me quickly!
