Of Triton The Syrena Legacy Anna Banks Books

I really enjoyed this sequel. I'm glad we got to learn more about the Syrena. We also got to meet a lot more of them. I enjoyed seeing them all especially Grom and the Archives.

Just like the first book, I was surprised by how sad certain chapters were. Although, the book is mostly a light fun read. I had to leave my degree in marine biology behind yet again and just accept the world Banks created.

There are a lot of parallels to current civil rights issues. The same arguments used in the book could be used today. Or during the Civil Rights Movement. All people should be accepted as people, no matter their differences.

I am very excited for the sequel. Mountains? I give this book a 4/5. If you read Of Poseidon, you should definitely pick this up.

Of Triton The Syrena Legacy Anna Banks Books Reviews

Of Triton picks up right where Of Poseidon left off making the transition from the first book to the second seamless. If you haven't read the first book, I would recommend doing so before reading Of Triton otherwise some parts of the book may not make sense although Banks does try to create flashbacks of sorts to remind the reader of key points that were presented prior. As with most sequels, Of Triton was a bit slower paced than the first and there are quite a few sections that seem repetitive. I found it humorous and even the author herself, claims that the "restating of events" is repetitive through one of the new characters that she brings into the story.

That aside, I thought that Of Triton was a good read. Much of the story was a bit predictable, but to Banks credit, she throws in a few new surprises and some new, likeable, colorful and even villainous characters. Emma's fate is entangled with her mothers. Her mother believes that the Syrena want to arrest her for murdering her beloved Grom, but Emma wants to believe that Galen left them to bring Grom to them although she is beginning to have her doubts. In fear and panic Emma's mother abducts Emma and tries to keep her from their hands knowing that not only is her life in danger, but so is Emma's. They can't hide forever, and if they are found out their lives will be placed in the hands of the laws of their people. It is there that loyalty, love, trust, and the gifts of Poseidon and Triton will be tested. Secrets will be exposed, enemies will surface, corruption will abound, and lives will be lost. The journey, although slower paced, is a worthy one. Although the author is planning another installment of this series (Of Neptune), the ending of this book could very well be the ending of this series. There is no cliffhanger, just clean resolutions without many questions or unresolved issues that makes you wonder what happens next. I will admit that I am curious how Banks is going to pick up with the final installment now that the major conflicts/struggles between the characters in books 1 and 2 have been addressed and/or resolved. Should be interesting.
Omg, I devoured Of Triton. I read it in less then one day. Again we get alternating POV between Emma and Galen. It was so well written that at each change I was like "What is going to happen!!" I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Of course after Nalia has a lot of explaining to do. Which is hard then anticipated. She is scared for her and her daughter. When the groups finally end up together there is a lot of discussion to be had. The secrets need to be revealed for all to understand what is going on. Emma finds out the truth about her parents and about Grom. All of this is hard for her and seeing her mom and Grom together makes her a bit upset. So Grom and his crew head back to announce the return of Princess Nalia but, unfortunately things do not go as planned. There is a bit of an uproar in their society and the Royals and "the stranger" are detained. Emma is left on shore with Rayna as her body guard. Will Emma ever see her loved ones again? Is she willing to risk her life to save them?

I continued to love the characters in Of Triton. Rayna is awesome and a pain in the butt all at the same time. Toraf is the ever loving mate of Rayna who would risk everything to keep her safe. Nalia finally gets her head on straight and I grew to like her even more. Rachel is the kind hearted ex-mobster haha. Throughout all this they remain a family, for the most part. They are willing to do what is necessary to protect everyone. Unfortunately, politics is dangerous and not everyone will survive this battle.

Galen and Emma are still love sick. In a super cute way of course. They are both worried about what will happen with their future especially after the insane tribunal. They are worried that their time will be limited because of the Syrena laws and the fact that Emma is a half-breed does not help. Galen tries very hard to keep Emma out of the Tribunal but, she can only wait so long! She makes her own decisions too. What seems the best for her in light of everything. Things get pretty intense for a while. Their love remains strong and they help each other get through the hard times. They have some pretty steamy make out sessions too. Will they get their happily ever after?

I am seriously in love with this series. I love mermaids and this version is awesome! I highly recommend it! Now I have to wait until May of 2014 for the conclusion! I am so not patient haha. I need it now!
I really enjoyed this sequel. I'm glad we got to learn more about the Syrena. We also got to meet a lot more of them. I enjoyed seeing them all especially Grom and the Archives.
