Summary/Review: 
Book 3 of the series once again features a coast-to-coast quest (literally Bar Harbor, Maine to the Bay Area of California) as Percy Jackson seeks to find his friend Annabeth and the goddess Artemis. The book introduces half-bloods Nico and Bianca di Angelo, features Zeus’ daughter Thalia for the first time, and brings in Zoë Nightshade and the Hunters of Artemis. All of these characters will be significant to the course of the narrative in the ensuing novels. But I feel The Titan’s Curse doesn’t work as well as a stand-alone adventure and feels a bit formulaic. It’s still clever and fun, though.
