When the goddess Artemis goes missing, she is believed to have been kidnapped. And now it’s up to Percy and his friends to find out what happened. Who is powerful enough to kidnap a goddess? They must find Artemis before the winter solstice, when her influence on the Olympian Council could swing an important vote on the war with the titans. Not only that, but first Percy will have to solve the mystery of a rare monster that Artemis was hunting when she disappeared-a monster rumored to be so powerful it could destroy Olympus forever.

Mixed feelings: Percy Jackson – The Titan’s Curse
Percy Jackson – The Titan’s Curse has a strong core idea — the execution mostly works. There are a few scenes that genuinely hit emotionally. The middle drags and repeats the same tension a bit too long. Not perfect, but it did enough to keep me turning pages.

⚠️ Spoilers: minor plot detail mentioned below. Mixed feelings on Percy Jackson – The Titan’s Curse, but I can see why people love it. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. The ending resolves fast compared to how much it builds up. There’s a specific turning point late in the book that changes the tone hard — that moment will make or break it for you. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.
