The tyrant's tomb -- Percy Jackson and the Bronze Dragon.

You will get to the Tiber alive. You will start to Jive. The former God Apollo is having a pretty rough time of it. Well, for one thing, he's called Lester. But being an awkward mortal teenager is the least of his worries. Though he and his friends (some of them) have emerged from the Burning Maze, they still have a triumvirate to defeat, oracles to rescue, and prophecies to decipher, so that the world may be saved, and Lester can become Apollo once again. But, right now, Nero, Caligula and Commodus are sailing to San Francisco with a massive army - and an overwhelming desire to destroyCamp Jupiter and everyone in it. Unfortunately, our only chance of salvation lies in the forgotten tomb of another psychotic ruler. You thought the emperors were scary? Wait till you meet the last king of Rome . . .
