I wasn't a big fan of Thalia. What kind of child of Zeus is scared of heights?! And I really think the only reason Artemis let her join the Hunters is to stop her from having to be the child of the prophecy and buy them all some more time with Percy, not because she thought Thalia was serious about her vow.<br/><br/>And yes...Festus would have owned Dr. Thorn, cause Festus is awesome. I'm very interested in seeing how the use him in the next books. I nearly cried in the book when...well...you know what happened if you've read it.<br/><br/>(http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/6821/festus.png) (http://img847.imageshack.us/i/festus.png/)
