Yeah, the owl is a bit creepy. I am a bit neutral with the cover and it is totally making a lot of questions and clues whirl around my brain, like the Romans are Greek are going to probably have some hard-core battle with bloodshed and gore and death and - anyway, while the owl is creepy, it also makes me think. The owl is the animal of Athena, and the message Athena gave Annabeth was Follow the Mark of Athena, so the owl may be the Mark of Athena, or (and this one is a bit witty) Frank could be the mark of Athena, lol. After all, he did shapeshift into an owl.
