Demigod of the world unite!

We have great news! Rick Riordan, the beloved bestselling author of five #1 New York Times bestselling middle grade series: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Heroes of Olympus, The Trials of Apollo, the Kane Chronicles, and Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard is returning to Kepler's. He'll be chatting about The Tower of Nero, the fifth and final installment in the Trials of Apollo series and we couldn’t be more excited.

At last, the breathtaking, action-packed finale of the Trials of Apollo series is here! Will the Greek god Apollo, cast down to earth in the pathetic moral form of a teenager named Lester Papadopoulos, finally regain his place on Mount Olympus? Lester's demigod friends at Camp Jupiter just helped him survive attacks from bloodthirsty ghouls, an evil Roman king and his army of the undead, and the lethal emperors Caligula and Commodus. Now the former god and his demigod master Meg must follow a prophecy uncovered by Ella the harpy. Lester's final challenge will be at the Tower of Nero, back in New York. Will Meg have a last showdown with her father? Will this helpless form of Apollo have to face his arch nemesis, Python? Who will be on hand at Camp Half-Blood to assist? These questions and more will be answered in this book that all demigods are eagerly awaiting.

We will have signed copies of The Tower of Nero for attendees and a special thank you gift while supplies last (a baseball cap!). And Uncle Rick will be chatting with a special guest (to be revealed later).

Publisher's Weekly dubbed Riordan "storyteller to the gods" . His presentations are always the best and sell out early. So don't wait - RSVP early to guarantee your spot.

See you (virtually) soon,
