Enter To Win A Rick Riordan Autographed Book & More

Disney-Hyperion is partnering with me for a giveaway!

We have some huge Rick Riordan fans in our house. It all started with my niece. She fell in love with the Percy Jackson series and has been a fan of the other Rick Riordan series for a while now. Then Logan read Percy Jackson and he was hooked. Next up came Kora. Now my kids can’t get enough of every series he writes and are always on pins and needles waiting for his next book to come out.

I know there are many other kids (and adults) that feel the same. His books are action packed and full of adventure. That’s why I’m excited to share info about the release of his newest books and the amazing giveaway below with you!

Summer of Magic & Mazes

You may already know about the series The Trials of Apollo. The first book is The Hidden Oracle in which Apollo has angered his father, Zeus, and has been cast down from Olympus as a normal teenage boy in New York City.

Trials of Apollo The Hidden OracleHe must survive modern day world and ward off his enemies of gods, monsters, and mortals who would love to see him destroyed. He needs help and he turns to the modern demigods in Camp Halfblood.

In The Dark Prophecy, Apollo is still a teenager and the only way he can reclaim his place on Mount Olympus is by restoring several Oracles that have gone dark.

Trials of Apollo The Dark ProphecyTo do so he must leave the relative safety of Camp Halfblood and go on a treacherous journey across North America. The good news is he’s gaining friendships with heroes Rick Riordan fans will recognize.

The third book in this series, is The Burning Maze. It was released in stores May 1st. Apollo is still on his quest to restore five Oracles but he has to do this without any godly powers and while being duty-bound to a confounding young daughter of Demeter, named Meg.

Trials of Apollo The Burning MazeFriendships, both old and new, will emerge on this twisty adventure featuring a hapless god who still thinks he’s red-hot.

More about The Trial of Apollo Series:

  • An Olympian Comes to Earth: The protagonist is nothing less than Apollo himself! Well, actually, he’s a mortal sixteen-year-old trying to earn his way back into Zeus’s favor by restoring five oracles. How will he manage without his godly powers?
  • A Godly POV: Apollo narrates the adventure; the disparity between his godly assumptions and his disappointing reality is hilarious.
  • Favorite Demigods Are Back! All of the beloved characters from Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter will aid Apollo in his quest over the course of five books.
  • New Demigods Are Introduced, including Apollo’s sidekick, a twelve-year-old girl named Meg who is secretive about her past—and is Apollo’s secret weapon.
  • Viperous Villains will complicate matters for our heroes as they search for the ancient Oracles.

The other new release is the Brooklyn House Magician’s Manual, The Kane Chronicles Companion. It also became available in stores on May 1st.

Brooklyn House Magician's Manual

Calling all young magicians of Egypt! If the blood of the pharaohs runs in your veins, you can’t afford to be without this guide to Ancient Egyptian deities and creatures, and Carter and Sadie Kane’s world of magic. Featuring fans’ favorite human, divine, and animal characters for the bestselling Kane Chronicles trilogy, Brooklyn House Magician’s Manual offers info about Egyptian mythology in laugh-out-loud entries with surprises throughout, including snarky comments from Sadie Kane and a dastardly plot by an old enemy.

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog got its name because we have two kids born a year apart and my husband, Dave, and I always joked that "the kids were too wired and we were too tired!" :)

Fast forward a bit—now the kids are off to college (how did that happened so fast!) and since 2009, I’ve been blogging through the chaos, coffee in hand, finding the best in family, travel, and tech—because honestly, who has time for bad gadgets and boring trips?

So, whether you're searching for family travel inspiration, tech gadgets, or tips to enhance family life, you're in the right place because the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here!
