Can't-Wait
Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishing Endings to spotlight and talk about the books we're excited about that
we have yet to read. Generally they're books that have yet to be released as
well. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. Find

THE DARK PROPHECY BY RICK RIORDAN
Hardcover 432 Pages
Science Fiction & Fantasy
Publisher: Disney-Hyperion
Release Date: May
2nd 2017
From Goodreads:
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. . . .
