Literary analysis 3

The battle of the labyrinth 
   In the battle of the labyrinth Percy, annabeth, and Grover go into the labyrinth to find its creator before Luke's army does and attacks camp half blood from the inside. While they search the labyrinth  they come across the god Janus who makes them choose between two door one way will kill them the other will lead them to the creator. The god Hera comes to the rescue and makes Janus go away. Finally after days of searching the group finds the creator who agrees to let himself die and destroy his labyrinth, in the process half of Luke's army is destroyed but the evil Titan lord Kronos is finally brought back to the real world from Tartarus. 

I think the characters are a little static in this story and not really growing any. In my opinion this book was a little boring but it was just leading up to the big finale

The Titans Curse
  In the titans curse Percy, Grover, annabeth, and Thalia find two new demigods named Bianca and nico de Anglo. The group gets a prophecy to save the goddess Artemis in San Francisco. While on their way to SF they end up running into Artemis's hunters also trying to save the goddess. On the way Bianca swears her alliance to the hunters and becomes immortal. In Hephaestus's junk yard Bianca is killed by a giant automaton. When in San fransisco the group finds that Luke's evil ship the princess andromeda is in San fransisco and has a whole army of monsters. The group led by Percy infiltrates the defenses and saves the goddess Artemis who then transports them to a near by airport to return home.
   I think the theme of the novel is too never give up. Like when Bianca dies the group wants to return home but they keep going to save the goddess. The tone of the story is happy and exciting, you cannot out down this book. There is a lot of metaphors and smilies in this story.
   After reading this story I believe that I definitely have met a person who is very dynamic not just changing from start to finish but from almost every other chapter he knows something new, acts a little older and more mature leading this group of kids
