The Titan's Curse by Rick Riordan
Percy Jackson’s third adventure begins with the rescue of
two mysterious half-bloods, Nico and Bianca. During the mission, however, they
lose Annabeth, and Percy is determined to find her. Worse, with Chiron gone,
the camp now has a new director-a man named Tantalus who cannot eat or drink.
With monsters everywhere and a dangerous enemy on the rise, Percy and friends
must join forces with the Hunters for a chance at victory.
Not only are the new characters wonderful, they prove to be
very surprising. In the book Percy Jackson and the Titan’s Curse, by Rick
Riordan, especially, we get some great character moments where we find out
truly shocking facts about them-things that you only realize were obvious after
they happen. I do wish Bianca and Zoe, along with the other hunters, got more
character development. They definitely don’t get enough time for us to
appreciate them; just long enough so you become emotionally attached. However,
they’re still really amazing in the moments they do get, and I really recommend
you read it.

This is the third book in the series and I'm constantly left wanting for more! The book is so enjoyable because of how hilarious some of the dialogue is, and how relatable the characters are. There were some plot twists and the book left me with so many questions that I cannot wait to have answered. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to dedicate myself to a series,and now I find myself a loyal fan. I recommend this series to honestly anyone, because there is something in it for everyone.
