The Titan's Curse (Percy Jackson & The Olympians, Book Three)


#356
Title: The Titan's Curse (Percy Jackson & The Olympians, Book Three)
Author: Rick Riordan
Year: 2007
Publisher: Miramax/Hyperion
312 pages

As the third in the series of five, I'd expect this book to be the emotional hinge. Though there was plenty of interesting action, I didn't find it as compelling as the first two. Instead of marking a turning point in Percy's development, it seemed more like a transitional adventure. Interpersonal dynamics are foreshadowed but not yet fully available to the reader. Fortunately, it picks back up with the fourth book.
