Ari's story continues in the ruins of New Orleans. As she struggles to rescue her friend and her father she discovers that fighting her heritage is a losing battle. I enjoy the rich surroundings and the original new story set firmly in old mythologies. ( )

Another fantastic book in the Gods and Monsters series. This book continues to build upon what the first book did. We get bits and pieces of information and it keeps on you just fascinated that you want to continue to read to figure everything out. I read this book so fast, it was such a page turner.

I would definitely recommend these books for anybody who loves Mythology books. ( )

REVIEW FOR SECOND READ TO COME SOON

First read: May 5th 3013

This is the second book in the Gods and Monsters series by Keaton. Although I didn't like this book quite as much as the first book in the series, it was still a good addition to this series. I continue to enjoy this YA urban fantasy series and the heavy mythology overtones to it. The characters and world are all very well done.

In this book Ari is learning how to use and control her new powers. We end up venturing into Athena’s realm, as Ari and friends try to rescue those that Athena took at the end of the last book.

I continue to enjoy all the mythological creatures, the interesting world-building, the easy to engage with characters, and all the action in these books. The story is pretty dark and has heavy gothic overtones to it, which I enjoyed.

Overall this was a well done continuation of this YA urban fantasy series. I love the blend of mythology, unique world-building, action, paranormal elements, and light romance. I would recommend to those who enjoy YA urban fantasy with a darker tone to it. This series is similar in tone to the The Demon Trappers series by Jana Oliver. ( )

Finally found this stupid book. Gah! I only had to go to like a million stores.

I am so glad there was a sequel to this story. I just love it. Greek myths brought to life. Adorable little crazy children with pet alligators. Awesome!

I can't wait for the conclusion. I need the third novel in my life. RIGHT NOW! ( )
