In this clever twist on Greek mythology, the god Apollo is stripped of his powers and forced to live as a mortal teenage boy in New York City as punishment from his father Zeus. With his godly abilities gone and dangerous enemies on his trail, Apollo must journey to Camp Half-Blood—a secret sanctuary for demigods—where he'll discover that survival, friendship, and humility matter far more than divine power. Fans of action-packed fantasy will love this fresh take on mythology that blends humor, adventure, and genuine heart.
How do you punish an immortal? By making him human. After angering his father Zeus, the god Apollo is cast down from Olympus. Weak and disoriented, he lands in New York City as a regular teenage boy. Now, without his godly powers, the four-thousand-year-old deity must learn to survive in the modern world until he can somehow find a way to regain Zeus's favor. But Apollo has many enemies-gods, monsters, and mortals who would love to see the former Olympian permanently destroyed. Apollo needs help, and he can think of only one place to go . . . an enclave of modern demigods known as Camp Half-Blood.
