"A storm is coming...
The ocean is a vicious place. Deeper and darker than Tristan could have imagined. Beneath its calm blue surface, an ancient battle is churning —and no one is safe.
In the quest for the Sea Throne, Tristan has already watched one good friend die. Now he must lead the rest on a dangerous voyage in search of the trident that will make him king. But while Tristan chases his destiny, the dark forces racing against him are getting stronger, and the sea witch of his nightmares is getting closer.
Battling sea dragons and savage creatures of the deep, Tristan needs his friends' support. But they each have their secrets, and a betrayal will force Tristan to choose between his crown and his best friend Layla — the only girl he's ever loved."
4.5/5
Definitely a great sequel to The Vicious Deep. It took me awhile to get into the book, and not because it was slow the action is practically non-stop, but once I did I couldn’t set it down!
Tristan’s has a lot to go through in this book. With a sea dragon, crazy mermaid princesses, demanding and loony oracles (though I suppose I’d be a bit nuts too having to see the future in everyone), blood-thirsty merrows, the landlocked and all his competitors (which some didn’t seem too bad, they all have their reasons). You’ll meet new characters, some are awesome, others a bunch of psycho’s. And tons of secrets, everyone's got secrets.
Goodness, the betrayals! I wasn’t really expecting them. And Kurt! I feel sad for him and shaking him all at the same time, along with Gwen.
I came across a few mistakes, especially about mythology, and I’m guessing that because it’s an advanced copy? This is my first so that’s what I’m assuming.
Favorite Line(s): "Sure, when it comes to fires and evil merpeople I can be concentration guy, but put me in front of a girl crying or puking, and I don't know the difference between my ass and my elbow."
"Of course. All the princesses and pirates and evil sea witches want a piece of me. Why wouldn't some nearly extinct dinosaur want in on it?"
