"A clash of mythic intrigues and centuries of pop culture to thrill
die-hard and new fans alike."--Kirkus
"Riordan fans will find all of the key elements here: wisecracking
narration, underdog kid turned hero (well, god turned underdog
turned hero in this case), mythological core, and robust side
characters who round out the field. This is familiar territory for
Riordan, but the formula works so well, and Apollo is just so
appealingly unpleasant, that there's little to fault in this
adventure."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Riordan's many fans will be thrilled with this return to the world
of Percy Jackson and friends. . . This latest has Riordan's
signature wry narration, nonstop action, and mythology brought to
life."--School Library Journal
