The Titan's Curse


Titans Curse

*****

By Rick Riodran


Recently I finished the book "Titan's Curse." I took a long time to put a book on the blog huh? Well, I will try to work on NOT abandoning books from now on. For the sake of blogging, I decided to put a post up. Here goes.


The Titan's curse is about a 14-year boy called Percy Jackson and his friends saving his friends. He is the son of Poseidon (The god of sea). There is also Grover the satyr, Thaila the son of Zeus (God of the sky), Zoe and Bianca the hunters. Together they go on a journey to free Annabeth (Daughter of Athena, the goddess of moon) and Artemis, who is a goddess of hunting herself from Atlas (Titan who is holding up the sky) and the Titan Lord. However, there is an oracle that said 2 will die in the journey. With that thought in mind, they still decide to go on the adventure. Read the book to find out!


My best part of the book was when Atlas and Artemis was having a fight. I have to admit that the author did a very good job of describing the situation. Atlas fighting with a huge javelin and Artemis fighting with double edged wicked dagger as long as her arm. They tried to kill each other with rage, but Atlas's power overwhelmed Artemis. Then she had a plan. That time, Percy was holding up the sky, which should've been Atlas. She gave a signal to Percy to back out from the sky when she kicked Atlas in that direction. Percy understood, and braced himself from possible death. When Artemis kicked Atlas in the direction, Percy quickly rolled out of the way and the sky almost squished Atlas. He managed to get up and hold up the sky, but he burst out with rage.


I want to reccomend this book to you if you've read Lightning Thief and Sea of the Monsters. The whole series are totally awesome. Twisted fate, battle for life, Making friends... all sorts of stuff. Oh, and if you ever read the greek mythology, you should be able to understand better. So how about giving it a try?

I like your introduction and this book is like the myth of Greece (?). This book seems interesting and I might try it after I finish my book.
