The demigods race to the rescue, to find that Grover has made an important discovery: two new powerful half-bloods whose parentage is unknown. But that's not all that awaits them. The Titan lord, Kronos, has set up his most devious trap yet, and the young heroes have just fallen prey.
Hilarious and action-packed, this third adventure in the series finds Percy faced with his most dangerous challenge so far: the chilling prophecy of the Titan's curse.

"Percy's not just for kids"
I have enjoyed all of Rick Riordan's books. I pre-read for my children and have been amazed with his skills. I'm a very tough reader on a writer. I over examine style, prose, and story. I have loved his books.
"Great continuation of the Percy Jackson Series"
my only issue is that the narrator did not keep all the characters' voices consistent from the first book to this book, which makes it more difficult to follow the flow of the book since it is different from what your mind expects.
Enjoying audiobooks daily!
"Titans Are Trouble!"
I loved Percy's changing relationships with Annabeth, Thalia and Luke.
Only any of the previous PJ and The Olympians books because I haven't read any other books like it.
Yes. I am getting used to the narrator. It's taken 3 books, though.
I really liked the story. This is the best book of the series thus far.
"Great family listen!"
I purchased the first book of this series to listen to on our road trip for Spring Break. After 12 hours of driving we had only less than an hour left and they didn't want to get out of the car!! Very well written and read and my children enjoyed it so much we have purchased them all!! We are now on the 3rd book and listen to it every time we are in the car. This has also had a pleasant side affect of no more sibling squabbling while driving...lol
Highly recommend!!
"Action-Packed Book"
This book is great for reader's who just can't stop reading! I couldn't put this book down!!
"3rd book 3rd Homerun for Rick Riordan"
Of course I'll listen it again, the performance of the narrator is spectacular, gives you the necessary amount of emotion the book needs for you to be envolved in the plot.The story is really good, I like it more than the second book, the twists in the story are really good, some of them predictible, some don't that's great about this book, you can try to guess what the evil side thinks or plots sometimes you guess sometimes don't, I recommended to everyone, specially those who like the greek mithology
The plot twists, try to guess the next move of the bad or good guys and specially I like how the author pictures the modern versions of the Myth gods
The Burrito Fight in the Damn
yes alot
Is a really good series, needs more promotion AND NO MORE MOVIES LIKE THE FIRST ONE
"Nice Book, Bad Audio"
The narrator for this book is horrible! The previous two weren't this bad, but this one... I don't know if there was a change in directors or something, but suddenly all of the dialogue sounds like something out of a 2nd grade play instead of anything professional. What's even worse is the decision to use a bunch of "silly" voices and bad, unnecessary accents. The voice for the Pegasus in the beginning was horrible and made my head hurt. The accent used for the Manticore was also frustrating. The worst, though, was near the end. There was absolutely no reason to give Mrs. Chase an accent, and doing so, especially the way it was done, is actually quite racist.
The book itself was fine. The story was great. I did get the sense that the writer didn't understand the purpose of "thees and thous," since the character who speaks like that doesn't really use them properly. But other than that, there's no problem with the writing.
The narration, though, really ruined my enjoyment of the book. I bought the first 5 out of the 6 books in the series from Audible, but I won't be continuing with them. Instead, I'll go to the library and borrow the print books.
"excellent title for 9-12 year olds"
For those kids looking for something now that Harry Potter is over, this is a good choice. Funny and exciting, with strong female characters as well as Percy, it's perfect for the 9-12 year old crowd.
"A great 3rd book in the Percy Jackson series!"
Very high!
The ending!
Everything! He is the perfect Percy. Plus all his different voices for the different characters was great!
YES! (And I did!)
I love that I can see how much Percy and the gang are growing up and maturing. I even cried at the end!
