The Burning Maze by Rick Riordan
Reviewer: Luka K.
Star Rating: 4
The Burning Maze is the third book in Rick Riordan’s Trials of Apollo series, a series based upon the mythological god
Apollo from the Greek myths. Apollo has been cast away by his father Zeus, and
must complete a series of quests as a mortal to become a god again. In this
book, Apollo must venture into Daedalus’’ labyrinth and try to free his third
oracle. With the help of some demigods, he fights his way through angry
sorceresses and gods, while his son Nero tries to thwart him at every end.
As always, Rick Riordan delivered another
gripping book, with amazing characterization and dialogue that sets it apart
from the average fantasy. He is the only well-known author that uses the myth
in a way that are not only interesting but also informative. It may be my
fondness for his writing, but I honestly found nothing wrong or off-putting in
this book.
This book would appeal to lovers of Rick
Riordan’s writing, and also fantasy lovers. This is a strictly fantasy book
with no other genres. Fans of the Fablehaven
series will find this book especially to their taste.
I would rate this book as a 5, but that is a bit
biased. I believe an appropriate rating for this book is a 4.5 stars.
