Review ~ Of Triton by Anna Banks

Of Triton (Of Poseidon #2)

Blurb: 

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.

And 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?

My Review: 
**4.5 Stars**

Aaaaa... that's it??? Where is the rest of the book???? (tears running down cheek). Great, now I have to wait a whole year for Of Neptune to come out. And there isn't even a set date yet!!!!

Of Triton picks up right where Of Poseidon left off. Ok, maybe a little after, but it back tracts to some of the action. Even though it is much shorter than the last book, Of Triton doesn't really feel like it when you are done. Yes, it leaves you wanting more, but more in the form of another book - not another chapter or two.

Ok, still love Rayna, and still wishing there was more of her in the book. Oooooo.... Maybe Anna Banks will come out with a short story just of Rayna *hint*hint*hint*. I really like how we were able to see more of the Syrena world and how it works (or in some cases - doesn't). There are a lot of politics going on in the Syrena world during the book, and you would think that politics would be boring - but nope! Exciting! Intrigue! Myster! (insert ghostly Ooooo sound here)

I also really like how we got to see more of the gifts in action. Not only Poseidon's gift, but Triton's gift makes an appearance as well. I look forward to Of Neptune, I am just disappointed that I have to wait so long to read it.
