Again lots of different Greek myth references with just the right amount of tweaking. Titan’s Curse is definitely not my favourite of the PJO series but serves as crucial setup for the final two in the series.

Bumped up to 4 stars because bb Nico is introduced 🥺

This is my second re-read of this book and I loved it just as much as the first time. This series just keeps getting better and better.

Percy is once again called upon to embark on a quest to save the gods. The Titan's Curse goes into the titans rising to try to defeat the gods once more with Luke's help.

This is my first 5 star rating for the Percy Jackson series and it is well deserved. This book had action right from the start. The book managed to balance character growth, action, comedy, and drama all so well. MANY characters were introduced but the pace of their introduction was well done so it wasn’t overwhelming to learn or remember each character. Riordan did a fantastic job of allowing time to grow each new character as well as growing the main characters and keeping them the central focus. The true power of Percy is being shown, not just through his mythical abilities but through his character and sacrifices. It would have been nice seeing Anabeth interact with Athena but I do enjoy readers got to learn Athena through Percy’s perspective. This book had the most plot twists of all the books so far which kept the book engaging and prevented me from putting it down. Out of all the books, this one is definitely the quotable which I personally love. I enjoy how Riordan maintained the presence of characters who weren’t central to this book (like Tyson and Clarisse) and enjoyed how each character had their own side journey (Grover, Zoe, etc). The deaths that occurred in this book were done well and even though the characters that died were newer characters, I enjoyed how Riordan made their death’s mean something an you got to know them well enough to care that they passed. Thalias decision to join the hunters was surprising but made sense for her character and the story. I’m really excited to see what happens with nico. 5/5 stars. Very excited to see how this story ends.
