Chalice

Chalice

By Robin McKinley

As the next Chalice, Mirasol SHOULD have been apprenticed to the last one, but it didn't happen. And she doesn't have an experienced Master to help her, either, due to the fire that killed him and his Chalice together. Instead, the new master is a former Priest of Fire, and well.... there are issues. The new master can burn something by the touch of a hand if he isn't careful. The problem is made worse by the fact that nobody except Mirasol trusts the new Master. Mirasol has to take on the difficult task of bringing unity to the demesne. Will she succeed, or will she make the problem worse? Like all of Robin McKinley's books, the world building is excellent. In my opinion, Spindle's End has better worldbuilding, but this book really incorporates it into the plot. I liked this book better than Spindle's end overall, though.

Puffin The Burning Maze, The Trials Apollo Book 3 (Hardcover)

Puffin The Burning Maze, The Trials Apollo Book 3 (Hardcover)

By Ben Hughes (designer) Rick Riordan

Quests, as Apollo learns in this book, are both extraordinarily tiring and super dangerous. Apollo is currently on a quest to defeat 3 emperors, also known as a triumvirate., and also restore 5 important prophecy-saying oracles. If the emperors get hold of even one oracle for too long, bad things will happen. Apollo has met of the emperors and killed none. He has, however, freed two oracles from the evil emperors. When Apollo met the previous oracle, he made Apollo's friend Meg issue a disturbing prophecy. The prophecy basically states that the roman demigod camp, Camp Jupiter is under attack. Also, Apollo and Meg must find the third emperor, who has a white horse, and get the third oracle from him. However, this mission will be harder than ever before. The third oracle is trapped in a burning maze, and the evil emperor wants to steal Apollo's godly essence and become a god himself. This time, will Appolo succeed? I liked the books in this series because they contain a reference that contains all the terms used in the story, so if you suddenly forgot something, you can just see it there. Also, the author begins the book very engagingly, unlike some other authors. This book is perfect for people who like books that contain mythology.

The Dark Prophecy (The Trials of Apollo)

The Dark Prophecy (The Trials of Apollo)

By Rick Riordan

Ahhhh…. My winter break read. Before we get started, I am just going to put it out there, Rick Riordan is an artist. (Speaking from an actual artist’s perspective). He writes with such flow and ease that it feels like he is simply moving a brush against a canvas. Too metaphorical? I know, I realized. My point is, is that Rick Riordan’s books are works of art. (Is that a better metaphor for you!?) His whole fandom is based on a sort-of fractured mythology. (That is a phrase that I just created). Now, let’s stop talking about the beautiful, enchanting works of Uncle Rick that I adore with a full passion, and start with TTOA; The Dark Prophecy. ***Characters*** As you all would know the main character is no other than (!) Lord Apollo himself, which you would know if you read the first book. In which case, WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING READ THE FIRST BOOK (AND MY FABULOUS REVIEW). Apollo (or poor pimple-filled Lester) – Apollo (or Lester) was the sort of character that you could not-not like. I loved being in his first person mind and reading how his thoughts about puny mortals (which I certainly am not) changed throughout the novel. For example- “ ‘Let the girl go,’ I whimpered through the pain. ‘Kill me and let her go’ “ And then, after his life flashed before his eyes, he thought, “I surprised myself. These were not the last words I had planned.” Meg McCaffrey- Meg was pretty, um, outgoing? She was the kind of person that didn’t really care about what will happen to her. You could say that she was Lester’s (Apollo) sidekick? But technically by the book, he really is her servant. You know what, I cannot explain this in a review, so GO READ THE NOVEL! There were other characters out there like Leo, Calypso, Emmie, and that other lady that was with Emmie that I forgot her name. Was it Jorge? Joe? Yea, it was Joe. Oh, and you can’t forget my buddy Lit! JUST LISTEN TO ME AND READ THE BOOK, YOU’LL UNDERSTAND MY JIBBERING… ***Build-up*** As I said in my first paragraph, Uncle Rick’s wonderful world is completely amazing. I, if you do not already know, am a rising author. I am trying to type a wonderful, original novel. Rick Riordan is GOALS, his writing is (I repeat) magnificent. His writing flows like paint. HE IS AN ARTIST! Okay, I’ll stop with the art references. In all, I really enjoyed this winter read. It was completely amazing and entertaining. And now, I bestow upon you a five-star rating. Congratulations, you stole Lana’s heart.
