The Trials of Apollo, Book One: The Hidden Oracle

De: Rick Riordan

Narrado por: Robbie Daymond

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 4,000-year-old deity must learn to survive in the modern world until he can somehow find a way to regain Zeus' 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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[Narrator] Robbie Daymond is completely charming as the god Apollo.... Apollo is conceited and self-important, but Riordan's funny writing and Daymond's narration make sure the listener is always on his side as he learns how to manage without his godly gifts." (AudioFile)

As great as always.

Rick Riordan is so amazing. Every book he writes has a magic to it. You always get so attached to the characters as they go threw hard ships, and while his books have those dark sides to them, they always keep there humor. The trials of Apollo is no exception, this was a great book. It was awesome to see how the kids at camp half blood where doing after beating the Giants and Gia. The ending made me even more excited for the next book! I will be pre ordering that book as soon as it is available.

Good story bad reader

Liked the story overall it did start out a little slow didn't like the reader

Amazing book

This book is a great start to a good long book series witch I would highly recommend five out of five stars amazing book

Good but not great

The story over all was very good and is a nice revisit to Camp Halfblood. Great to get to know some new demigods. I'm not one for books written in first person so that did take a bit to get used to.

I gave it a bit of a lower rating only because the narrative was poor. The narrator pronounced some words much differently then I have ever had heard them pronounced and some of his voices for characters were hard to distinguish one from another.

Well worth the listen

Seriously love the person reading this book! He makes it so enjoyable & reads it like a conversation!

great story with bad intentions.

very disappointed that nico and will are gay. not necessary to tell the story. we should have some escape from political correctness and just enjoy the plot.

A good book

Love it a lot it is a good book and it was a great time

Awesome book but Apalo's complaining was annoying.

Awesome book!

great read

loved the book and the voice over did wonderful justice at showing the emotion of the characters at all times well done

Great narrator

I wish Robbie Daymond would do all of the Percy Jackson books, the narrators for those were almost unbearable. He did a much better job with character voices and inflections than the others.
