The Titan's Curse
by Rick Riordan


The Titan's Curse is the third book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians book series. The book is about Percy Jackson who is the son of Poseidon. Percy has to fight monsters and save the day.
He is what is called a demi-god. He goes to a special camp where he learns how to fight monsters. Yay for him.

This book begins in the middle of winter while Percy and two other demigods, Annabeth the daughter of Athena and Thalia the daughter of Zeus, are on their way to find some two new demigods and bring them to their camp. At first all is well until they get ambushed by a power monster. The Manticore. They are rescued by the Hunters of Artemis but in the commotion the Manticore and Annabeth fall off a cliff.

Soon afterward Artemis is captured on a hunting trip and Zoe Nightshade a hunter, Thalia, and Percy's friend Grover go off to save her from an evil guy called The General. Percy who is not allowed to join in this quest follows behind the hunters in hopes of being able to help out and to save his friend Annabeth. On the way there they battle many monsters and ran away from evil skeleton warriors. Finally they get to the mountain and save the day.

I think this is and enjoyable book filled with suspense and comedy. It is well told and has many funny allusions to Greek mythology. This book is my favorite in the series. It does exhibit some rude comments from Percy's Pegasus Blackjack but besides that its clean. A
