Of Triton

By: Anna Banks

Narrated by: Rebecca Gibel

Length: 7 hrs and 52 mins

Publisher's Summary

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. Syrena law states that all half-breeds should be put to death.

As if that’s not bad enough, her mother’s reappearance in the Syrena world turns the two kingdoms - Poseidon and Triton - against one another. That 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?

Once again, Anna Banks infuses Emma and Galen’s points of view with humor, intrigue, and waves of romance.

Air headed heroine-spoilers

I stopped on chapter 2. I managed to get through the first book even though Emma was an idiot, I still wanted to see what happened next. Then, I hit a brick wall per se. The whole first book is about Galen trying to do the right thing by the Syrena by mating Emma to Grom. Book 2 second chapter or so Emma gets kidnapped by her mom and realizes her mom thinks Grom is dead. Instead of Emma convincing her mom otherwise she begins to doubt that Grom is really alive herself because Galen has lied to her in the past! (when?) They resolved everything! Now her mom kidnapped her rather than verifying if the "supposed" love of her life is really alive. If there was a chance that the LOVE of your life was alive, because there is absolutely NO reason for them to lie about it, DON'T you think you would stick around to find out!! It makes no sense and the characters, at least the females, are too stupid for me to continue. Disappointed.

Fluffy

Much like the first book this was a light and fluffy beach read. I enjoyed the story and it did have some funny parts, but overall it was just ok. I only purchased this book because the first one had a cliffhanger ending. (annoying) Thankfully this book wraps up the story nicely and I felt it came to a satisfying conclusion. Even though there is a third book, I didn’t feel compelled to purchase it. Definitely not what the publishers want but I was happy as a listener.

Part 2

Definitely a lot more story to go on. Poseidon was good but Triton brought a different air of drama that, without dropping spoilers, I will simply say made it a great read! Also i love how Banks rounded up the story arc and left room for something different in book 3!

The characters were working my nerves

I really don't have time for characters who are stubborn and hard headed to the point that they are making life more difficult for everyone around them. Especially when they don't have really any concrete reason to be so resistant. It is a weak plot device and poor, frustrating writing. In the first book I could agree with the main characters stubbornness, distrust, and refusal to follow the male leads orders because he was withholding information and they'd just met, but at this point all of the distrust and stubbornness is really happening just to make the story longer. Lazy, frustrating writing that almost kept me from finishing this book which is otherwise really good.

Good

A little slow at times but I def enjoyed the 2nd installment in the series ! Can’t wait to finally see them mated and hopefully she gets a tail!

.... I can't

i really stopped paying attention after 1 hr... the way this story was written wasnt good... the idea is good but the execution, I am not sure. like trying way too hard to make it a "twilight" YA romance with syrenas, ... the idea is good but.... sigh and why in the heck the syrenas feel more tired and spend more energy outside the water... makes no sense

The catch phrases….

Emma’s catchphrase of “oh my sweet goodness” made me want to throw my device against the wall. Story was fine, it’s an easy beach or listen to just follow a story. Could’ve used more development and could’ve actually written out what the biggest plot line of the book was.

great read

loved the build up, and when Emma showed up with the sharks !!!!!!!! good stuff

Nice tie in and conclusion

This one was pretty good, and tied up the loose ends of the first book. (There is a third, but I haven't found it to be necessary to the storyline. I listened to it just bc it was free and part of the series.)

Of Triton (The Syrena Legacy Book 2)

OMG 😳 Emma just learned that her mother is a long-lost Poseidon princess things start to get heated up especially when she makes a reappearance among the Syrena. I thought this book was hard to put down. I read the first two book s and listened to the audible book….loved it… can’t wait to start book 3,now…

Definitely recommend this book 📕 ‘ series 📚 and the cover speaks a thoundsand words- love ❤️ it!!! ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥
