The Titan's Curse by Rick Riordan
Pages: 320

Book Synopsis:
IT'S NOT EVERYDAY YOU FIND YOURSELF IN COMBAT WITH A HALF-LION, HALF-HUMAN.

But when you're the son of a Greek god, it happens. And now my friend Annabeth is missing, a goddess is in chains and only five half-blood heroes can join the quest to defeat the doomsday monster.

Oh, and guess what? The Oracle has predicted that not all of us will survive...


My Review:

Once again I cannot express how mad I am at myself for not reading this book series much sooner in my life!

'The Titan's curse' is the third book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and yet again Rick Riordan did not disappoint.  This book is action packed, full of monsters and challenges our young half-blood heroes have to overcome.

In this book we are introduced to a few new demi-gods my favorites of course being Nico Di Angelo and his sister Bianca Di Angelo. After being rescued from a private school in the middle of no where these two take us on quite the adventure when Bianca decides to join Artemis and her hunters making her an immortal who helps the goddess Artemis track down and kill monsters all over the world. Nico obviously does not handle this news too well and it makes it even worse when once they all arrive back at camp they receive a new quest prophecy which involves Bianca leaving Nico behind at Camp Half-Blood.


Our main character Percy is also left out of this new prophecy but decides to leave camp after one of his best friends and possible love interest, Annabeth, goes missing. There are a lot of new monsters as well as gods in this book which keeps it all very interesting. For me personally my favorite god in this book was Apollo who's haiku's are so awful but somehow he remains charming and very funny even though this book gets quite serious at times.



Overall I really enjoyed 'The Titan's Curse.' This book makes for a very quick and entertaining read and I honestly cannot wait to see what happens next! My plan is to finish this series by the end of the year and then jump right into Rick Riordan's next series, 'The Hero's of Olympus' because I've heard nothing but amazing things about it!
