Synopsis:

When Percy Jackson receives an urgent distress call from his friend Grover, he immediately prepares for battle. He knows he'll need his powerful demigod allies at his side; his trusty bronze sword, Riptide; and . . . a ride from his mom.

The demigods reace to the rescue to find that Grover has made an important discovery: two new powerful half-bloods, whose parentage is unknown. But that's not all that awaits them. The Titan lord, Kronos, has set up a devious trap, and the young heroes have just fallen prey.

Hilarious and action-packed, this third adventure in the series finds Percy faced with his most dangerous challenge yet—the chilling prophecy of the Titan's curse.

My rating: ★★★★★
OMG the Titan Kronos is rising! Yes, that is a bad thing... since he's practically trying to take over the world and what not. Okay, maybe I was exaggerating a bit. But isn't that just as bad as overthrowing Zeus and the rest of the gods and replacing them with a whole bunch of demigods (including Luke the evil, lol) and having Kronos as the leader? Well it is, since Olympus moves around and happens to be over New York.


After an encounter with the Goddess Artemis, Percy, Grover, Thalia (Daughter of Zeus) go back to Camp Half-Blood with Artemis' Hunters and two newly found Demigods.

Why didn't i mention Annabeth? Well that's because when they first ran into Artemis, it was because they were fighting a monster. And that monster fell over a cliff with Annabeth :( sad, i know.
Later, Artemis' lieutenant Zoe finds out the Artemis is in trouble. So they go out on a quest to save her. And Percy secretly comes along to secretly find Annabeth.

Still funny, full of adventures and mysteries to keep you turning the page, wanting for more.
