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.

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.

In the beginning of the book, Queen Leah and King Stefan rule the land. Unfortunately, they have a crave for greed and all things fancy. With their forces, they stripped the land of its natural beauty. So when their daughter Aurora was born, the parents didn’t love her that much, three evil fairies gave the baby girl gifts, but the final cursed her to perish on her 16th birthday. Maleficent, a good fairy, was able to change this so Aurora would live on her 16th birthday. Aurora turns 16, and next thing you know, BOOM! Maleficent is back and has taken Aurora into her custody and thrown the queen and king into the dungeon. Maleficent and Aurora live a subtle and semi-boring life in the castle. That is, until Aurora finds out that this is all a dream, and that her parents are good and the fairies blessed her with good gifts. But the most shocking thing Aurora finds out is that Maleficent is bad and has been using the townsfolk to survive and keep power. Fleeing the castle, Aurora meets Prince Philip and the two of them wander outside of the castle searching for a way out of the horrid dream. Dodging Maleficent’s evil demons and traps, the two of them work hard to wake Aurora up. During the journey, both of the young heroes learn and discover things about themselves on this journey to defeat maleficent and wake Aurora up. Happy reading!

“Starry River of the Sky” by Grace Lin is an amazing book. There are plenty of interesting Chinese stories and loving characters that you sympathize for. The story begins with a boy named Rendi arriving in the village of Clear Sky in a merchant’s dusty cart. Oddly, his only possessions are a cloth bag and beautiful porcelain rice bowl. However, when the merchant is giving a gang of wine to an innkeeper in the village, Rendi is discovered and thrown out of the cart. The innkeeper sees this and asks if Rendi wants a job, to help with chores around the inn. Rendi sees no other choice but to accept and helps him push the gang of wine inside the inn. After that, he meets the innkeeper (Master Chao’s) daughter, Peiyi. He arrives in a time where adults have to drink wine and little kids have to paint the 王 symbol on their heads to protect them from the Noxious Animals, because it is the Day of Five Poisons. Peiyi shows him around the inn and tells him about the Stone Pancake, which is a huge stone field stretching out into the horizon, seeming to never end. Peiyi tells him it is there because her ancestor moved a mountain that was once on the Stone Pancake. Rendi scoffs and tells her that is impossible. They dislike each other strongly. Later in the story we discover three more characters, under the name of Madame Chang, Mr. Shan, and the toad. We also find out more about Rendi’s backstory, and why the stone pancake ACTUALLY means, along with heart wrenching plot twists that will tear your heart. You will gasp along with the characters, shout with them, cry with them, laugh with them. I loved this book and I hope you did too.

Because I love DRAGONS! So in this story it's almost all about mythical creatures and some made up ones! So a dragon named Firedrake has to leave his home to find the Rim Of Heavens for him and the rest of the dragons to live, so you think Firedrake is all alone right? Wrong! Firedrake is taking his best friend, a brownie girl named Sorrel and now later on in the story, they find a human boy named Ben and takes him along too. Now they don't know that there is a dragon named Nettlebrand he cant fly but he hunts silver dragons! So a gnome tells Nettlebrand and he makes his little servant named Twigleg go after them and find out where they are going! So Firedarke, Sorrel, and Ben don't know this so they found Twigleg and brought him along for the journey! We better hope them luck!

I've always liked the tale of Sleeping Beauty, so I might be biased-BUT, this book was absolutely STUPENDOUS, period. Maleficent wasn't always evil, she used to be a kind faerie. Then a human named Stephen came along. He betrayed her by cutting off her wings, only because he wanted the throne. Maleficent responded by cursing his baby, Aurora. Time passes, and Maleficent finally decides to bring teen Aurora to the Moors, a.k.a the land of faeries. They grew closer to each other every night, until the day of the curse had come. Will Aurora find out the truth of Maleficent? Has Maleficent's heart been changed? Find out in this wonderful, engaging book! Like I said before, I personally loved it! I think it was the perfect backstory to go with the movie. Some reasons why I liked this book are: I liked how they showed Maleficent wasn't always bad, and how the author gave more to the story. I also liked it because of the characters. From Aurora to the three faeries that looked after her, the characters made the book more interesting. I would recommend this book for: Ages 8+, fairy tale lovers, and people looking for a good book.

This is such a nice and heartbreaking book. Faolan was abandoned on an icy river. His mother and father were driven away from the pack.

Faolan loved Thunderheart and Thunderheart loved him. However, when winter came, disaster strikes Faolan as Thunderheart gets killed by a rockslide.

After getting rescued by Gwynneth, Faolan get accepted into clan as a gnaw wolf.

This book is absolutely amazing! I really like reading it. I would recommend this book for Horse Lore lovers. So far its about a kid named Galwyn who escaped from his abusive uncles cargo ship to work for Lord Atos; a horse deliverer. Galwyn goes through a big adventure and learns to take care of horses. I love this book so far. This book is something you would want to read on rainy day.
