American Gods by Neil Gaiman

Chapter Summary:

Rachel Elizabeth Dare, Apollo’s priestess and the Oracle of Delphi, flies into the camp using her dad's helicopter. She agrees with Apollo's suspicions that Triumvirate Holdings is behind the attempt to control the Oracles, and that she thinks the missing campers are being led to the Grove of Dodona. Apollo and Meg enter the woods in search of the grove. A geyser spirit or palikos directs them to the gateway to the grove while advertising the woods to the pair. Apollo and Meg are attacked by the ants or myrmeke. Apollo distracts the ants by playing the ukulele, breaking his oath to the River Styx. In the process, another set of ants carry off Meg to their lair.
