Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Titan's Curse

In the third installment in the Percy Jackson series, we are introduced to a host of new characters!  Thalia is back after the Fleece works it's magic a little too well and restores her back to human form.  We also meet Bianca and Nico di Angelo who are brother and sister demigods.  Bianca soons joins the Hunters of Artemis, a group of girls who work close with Artemis, goddess of the hunt.  This leaves Nico feeling hurt, but she dies while in the Junkyard of the Gods for taking something when she wasn't suppose to.  Along with the Hunters we meet Zoe Nightshade who is tough and no-nonsense Lt Hunter.  We later find out that she is the daughter of the Titan Atlas.  It is up to the Hunters, Thalia and Percy to save Artemis and Annabeth who have been taken in order to replace Altas.

Once again, this is a great read!  It's full of action and comedy.  It's also full of heartbreak as two of the characters that are featured in this book die.  But we soon learn that there is another puzzle piece that has come about due to Kronos' evil plot.  The di Angelo kids turn out to have a pretty important father, which can cause some severe problems in the future.  All in all the book was great.  But Annabeth wasn't really mentioned much in the book, but still did great in the few parts that she was featured.  We also see how Percy's feelings for Annabeth unfold.  It's  great story and definitely helps to thicken the Kronos plot!!
