About this deal

Two hundred and ten/Is a lot of haiku, but/I can do more if-/(*insert the sound of a god being strangled here*) He goes to Camp Half-Blood where he learns that Meg returned to her family home. He thanks the trees in the grove of Dodona for sending their best, even though they had cast the Arrow out as the weakest. Rachel’s oracle powers have been restored. Nico and Will are planning on going to the Underworld to save a Titan they left behind. Rachel says a prophecy, but Apollo does not hear it. Nero tries to regain control of the situation by telling Meg that they can't interfere with justice, to which Meg shouts at him telling him that this isn't justice. Nero looks at her with pity and tells her that the dryads didn't have the courage or spirit to do what's necessary. Meg watches in horror as she realizes what this means and Nero informs the other Imperial Children to drop their torches into the dryad's pots. Meg explodes with some kind of green dust that coats everyone and everything in the throne room, as puts the flames from the torches out. This dust allows the dryads plants to become even stronger and tells them to go heal while she protects them. The battle for Camp Jupiter is over. New Rome is safe. Tarquin and his army of the undead have been defeated. Somehow Apollo has made it out alive, with a little bit of help from the Hunters of Artemis.

Also, I just didn’t care about Meg and Apollo in the beginning. I love them now, sure, but at first I was just so annoyed.The depth of this book was surprising but entirely welcomed and I love it for it. It was the right way to say goodbye to the series. When he wakes up, he sees Artemis leaning over him. He cries and gives his sister a hug. Artemis comforts him and says everything's alright, he made it. After they break the hug, Apollo looks at himself seeing all his scars and bruises from his last fight were gone. He asks Artemis how long he was out for, and she tells him that only two weeks had passed. He then asks about his friends and Artemis reassures him that she sent them all clear omens of his success. Artemis helps Apollo change clothes and they prepare to go to the throne room. Apollo asks for a moment alone as he tries to gather his thoughts. He takes off the laurel wreath on his head since he feels like he does not deserve it. All these visual reminders of all the things he's done in these past few centuries causes him to feel uneasy, but he says this uneasiness also feels reassuring. As he continues thinking he realizes he doesn't see Mount Olympus as a home anymore and wants to see Meg again as well as being with Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter again. But he realizes the world of demigods isn't his place but that doesn't mean he can't remember his experiences there. This doesn't mean he can't go and visit though but before this he has to show himself to his family. He turns and walks to the throne room. Line 15 is about Apollo falling all the way to the brink of Chaos, dragging Python with him. He rises again by being returned to his godhood.

To be human is to move forward, to adapt, to believe in your ability to make things better. That is the only way to make the pain and sacrifice mean something."

‘Tower of Nero’ spoilers

The maturity was so amazing in this book. I hated Apollo so much in the first book and Meg got on my nerves. They were so immature and bratty and annoying. But Tower of Nero really showed how much they’d grown and changed since then and it made me so proud. That character development was both slow and subtle but also so insane and obvious that I just loved it so much. I loved it. Jason Grace: A son of Jupiter. He helps Apollo, Meg, and Piper in The Burning Maze. He dies while assisting Apollo and trying to fight Caligula, as he and Piper were given a prophecy stating that one of them will undergo a three letter word that starts with D, which is revealed to be “die". In the next few days, either I would defeat these enemies and become the god Apollo again (assuming my father Zeus allowed it) or I would die trying. One way or the other, my time as Lester Papadopoulos was coming to an end.

The Tower of Nero is the fifth and final book of The Trials of Apollo. It was released on October 6, 2020. Line 1 talks about the final obstacle Apollo would face on his to reclaiming his godhood. This final task is erasing Python from existence and freeing the final oracle. There's a reference to Rachel's proper debut book The Battle of the Labyrinth in which she throws a hairbrush at Luke and catches him off guard. In The Tower of Nero, she throws a hairbrush at a barbarian when trying to cover Apollo. Reyna & Thalia: Both of these powerful demigods are still part of Artemis’ Hunters, chasing the Teumessian Fox as it wreaks havoc wherever it goes. I’d also be happy with a standalone about either of these characters or the Hunters in general.I’m still incoherent. Sorry to everyone reading this. There’s going to be much more screaming and stuttering and internal struggle. I literally need to obsess over every detail. Line 3 refers to erasing Python from existence and freeing the oracle so the power of prophecy would be fully restored. Line 2 talks about Meg and Apollo. They were the only two to be able to first enter the tower as temporary sacrifices. Zeus/ Jupiter | Hera/ Juno | Poseidon/ Neptune | Demeter/ Ceres | Ares/ Mars | Athena/ Minerva | Apollo/ Apollo (Roman) | Artemis/ Diana | Hephaestus/ Vulcan | Aphrodite/ Venus | Hermes/ Mercury | Dionysus/ Bacchus | Hades/ Pluto Camp Half-Blood's forces stay at the Tower to help rehabilitate the Imperial children after the years of abuse they endured, but Apollo has to go defeat Python. Using the Labyrinth, he reaches Delphi in minutes.
