In the third book of this series you meet two new Demi-Gods: Nico and Bianca di Angelo. With the help of the Hunters, they head off to find Artemis who has been taken by the Titans and Percy's good friend Annabeth, who may not even be alive.
This is my least favorite book of the series. It's not a bad book by all means but to me it feels more like a filler to make it a 5 book series. Though I LOVE the new Demi-Gods. You do meet (at least) three new gods in this book. Over all this is a good book.
Just saying: I feel really bad for Bianca. :) Suspense my dear readers! Suspense!
**SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT**
Right off the bat: Nico! I love that they added a son/daughter of Hades into the series. Now you have one child from each big three: Thalia, Percy, and Nico.
Yes... we all know why I only said Nico... Poor Bianca. R.I.P
If you don't like Nico now you will almost certainly love him later.
Lines I love:
"Mr.D," I said
He raised his eyebrow.
"You called me by my right name," I said. "You called me Percy Jackson."
"I most certainly did not Peter Johnson. Now off with you!"
"Blackjack," I said," you're supposed to stay in the stables."
Meh, the stables, You see Chiron staying in the stables?
"Well... no."
"You're glad to lose another camper," I said. "You'd like it if we all disappeared!"
Mr.D stifled a yawn. "You have a point?'
"Yeah," I growled, "Just because you were sent here as a punishment doesn't mean you have to be a lazy jerk! This is your civilization, too. Maybe you could try helping out a little!"
For a second, there was no sound except the crackle of the fire.The light reflected in Mr. D's eyes, giving him a sinister look. He opened his mouth to say something-probably a curse that would blast me to smithereens-when Nico burst into the room, followed by Grover.
"SO COOL!" Nico yelled, holding his hands out to Chiron."You're...you're a centaur!"
Chiron mangaed a nervous smile. "Yes, Mr. di Angelo, if you please.Though, I prefer to stay in human form in this wheelchair for, ah, first encounters."
"And whoa!" He looked at Mr.D. "You're the wine dude? No way!"
Mr.D turned his eyes away from me and gave Nico a look of loathing. "The wine dude?"
"Dionysus, right? Oh, wow! I've got your figurine."
"My figurine?"
"In my game, Mythomagic. And a holofoil card, too! And even though you only have like five hundred attack points and everbody thinks your the lamest god card, I totally think your powers are sweet!"
"Ah." Mr. D looked truly perplexed, which probably saved my life. "Well thats... gratifying."
Sorry that last one was so long, I just love that whole part. I hope you enjoyed the Review!

titans curse and the battle of the labryinth are my favorites. my least favorite is probably the last one, i feel that he could have done more with it
ReplyDeleteI think The Last Olympian was the best. I think he did it perfectly. Of course this is my opinion. The Battle of the Labrynth is amazing though! I want to say some things about Last Olympian but I'm going to wait till my review for it. That will be either tommorrow or Sunday.
