Writing
“One shall fall by a parent’s hand.”
The continuing saga of Percy Jackson and the Olympians keeps getting better! The third book, “Titan’s Curse”, is probably the best so far in the series with the most action and suspense than the first two. If elite can describe a book, this is truly an elite book.
This book is fantasy fiction because most of the things in here, for example: zombies, flying horses, and sea cows are not real and probably won’t exist. Percy Jackson wants to save Annabeth from the unknown people that hold her, but the people in the quest don’t want him to come and they don’t know where to go. He follows the four that are in the quest, then decides to try and help them when he learns some information about Annabeth.
This book is incredible! So incredible I can’t name any weaknesses. One strength is the name of the chapters. For example, after seeing at the top of the page for chapter two “The Vice Principal Gets a Missile Launcher”, you know you want to keep reading! Another thing is its relation to the past two books, so if you started reading the series on this book, then you would still know what they were talking about. For example, a new character was introduced at the very last page of the second book, and in this book they tell you who she is and how she became a character.
I recommend this book to grades between third and sixth because a second grader would probably find most of the words too hard. They won’t understand the long detailed scenes plus the book will probably be too long for them. I give this book five out of five stars.
