The third installment of Percy Jackson & the Olympians just gets better and better. I was on the edge of my seat for much of the book, trying to figure out how it was all going to fall into place! I loved the new characters that were introduced in this book such as Zoe Nightshade. Thalia is given a better introduction than her abrupt appearance at the end of book two, but her relationship with Percy isn't given much explanation to begin with. I was slightly jarred by her sudden inclusion at the novel's outset, but quickly adjusted as I saw the nature of her relationship with Percy take a competitive edge.

This book felt slightly more intricate that the first two novels, and I enjoyed it immensely. By the novel's end, I felt the need to pick up book 4 and get reading!

Man re-reading this I had forgotten so many things that happened in this book. This was the first of the series that really hurt and was so heavy. The first two books are fun adventures with some series moments. This one hits you right in the heart. Annabeth is my girl! I don't know if she gets enough credit for being so badass but she deserves it.
