Bookroo's summary

Stripped of his divine powers, Apollo, once a mighty god, finds himself as a vulnerable teenager in New York City. With enemies lurking at every corner, he must navigate the perils of the mortal world and seek refuge at Camp Half-Blood. Can Apollo reclaim his place on Olympus, or will his foes ensure his downfall? Join him on a thrilling quest filled with mythic challenges and unexpected allies.

From the publisher

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 four-thousand-year-old deity must learn to survive in the modern world until he can somehow find a way to regain Zeus’s 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.
