Okay here are my expectations from ToA.

1.First of all,this had better make up for the ultimate crap aka BoO.

2.First of all, how is the shift to Apollo's perspective going to affect the narrative? As we all know, Rick relies a lot on his protagonists being clueless noobs to drive the mystery in his books. The characters that have information are unhelpfully tight-lipped, often to frustrating levels, and the heroes always have to force, extort, negotiate or trick them into spilling the beans.  Apollo is the god of prophecy and truth. In Titan's Curse he implies he could see pretty much everything that wasn't cloaked with powerful magic. So even if he loses his powers and immortality, he'll still be insanely knowledgeable. He'll know all the monsters and their abilities, their motives, their backstories, etc. How's Rick going to deal with that? I could see Apollo being stripped of his knowledge and non-essential memories, since they're a byproduct of his godly powers.
