- Goodreads Description -
In this sequel to OF POSEIDON, Emma has just learned that her mother is a long-lost Poseidon princess, and now struggles with an identity crisis: As a Half-Breed, she’s a freak in the human world and an abomination in the Syrena realm below. Syrena law states that all Half- Breeds should be put to death.

As if that’s not bad enough, her mother’s reappearance among the Syrena turns the two kingdoms—Poseidon and Triton—against one another. Which leaves Emma with a decision to make: Should she comply with Galen’s request to keep herself safe and just hope for the best? Or should she risk it all and reveal herself—and her Gift—to save a people she’s never known?

I absolutely missed the characters from this series. It's been a while since I've read Of Poseidon and I have to say...I missed the characters a lot. Do you ever find that? Anna Banks never fails to make her book funny. Some of the lines in this series is hilarious and had me cracking up for ages. The cover is beautiful but I just have a thing against having kissing couples on covers...it's just awkward. 

I don't know why but for some reason the writing felt a little amateurish. I think it's because I've been reading some books of amazing authors and the contrast between books sort of lower my ratings. Nonetheless I still loved the story. Although I do have one issue, it was way too short! 246 pages is not long enough. I feel like Of Poseidon and Of Triton should have been one book. In my review of Of Poseidon I said that the changing of 1st person to 2nd person didn't annoy me but for some reason I just found it super confusing in this book. I really don't like it when authors do this and just prefer when they stick to the one writing style. 

The continuation of the storyline is great! After that cliffy at the end of the first one I was just dying to know what happened. The book kicked off straight after and just flew into some intense scenes. The good humor in Of Poseidon was still present which is what I love about this series. I missed Emma's sassy attitude, she likes to give poor Galen a hard time. But for some reason I feel like we didn't get much character development in this book. Galen isn't a book boyfriend I absolutely love like some other characters and I felt like sometimes this story is a bit bland. I think it's because I'm not very used to the 'mermaid genre' as this is the first series I've read about mermaid or Syrena if you want to call it. 

Overall I enjoyed this book but it was TOO SHORT! I wonder what's going to happen in the next book. I have no predictions, I'm hoping for a new plot twist to keep me hooked. Thanks for reading my review, I rate this 4/5 stars.
