From The Publisher:
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, Annabeth and Thalia, at his side; his trusty bronze sword, Riptide; and . . . a ride from his mom.
The demigods race 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 his most devious trap yet, 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 so far: the chilling prophecy of the Titan's curse.

This continues to be an incredibly enjoyable series!
The main character, Percy Jackson, is starting to grow and develop and really come into his own as a hero. Every book adds new characters that are equally well-developed and interesting. This book introduced us to Thalia and a gang of female maiden Hunters that were awesome. I like a YA book that has well-developed and capable female characters throughout, and this series definitely meets that criteria. We have now met Annabeth, Thalia, Artemis, Zoe, Athena, Aphrodite. We were also introduced to two new Half-Bloods, and I think Nico is going to turn out to be a fascinating character. Finally, this installment of the series went full-throttle into the action and never slowed down. I am also amazed by how genuinely funny these books always are. I can't wait to read the next one!
This book, was really more about getting to know the characters and less about excitement , although it was still an amazing book and makes me love this series even more. Looking forward to the next book!
