Do you love Percy Jackson? What about The Hunger Games? If so, we want to welcome you to The Sunbearer Trials by Aiden Thomas! Every decade, ten of the most worthy semidioses (demigods) compete in the Sunbearer Trials. The winner carries light & life to all the temples of Reino del Sol. The loser, however, has the greatest honor of all--they will be sacrificed & their body melted down to refuel the Sun Stones, protecting the world for another ten years. Our main character Teo isn't afraid or even too worried about the upcoming trials....until he's drafted into them himself. Being the son of the god of birds does have its perks, but is it enough to keep him alive? We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we loved the book!
