The second installment in the Maya trilogy was just as good as the first book. I did enjoy this sequel a little bit more then the first book, but I still felt that it kind of recycled the plot of book one. That is not to say that this one didn't really expand on the world because I actually think it did. We got to learn a little bit more about the gods and their history. I also really appreciate the friendship between Maya, Frankie, and Eli, it just makes the reading experience that much more enjoyable. Let me not forget that this series has been very inclusive so far as well when it comes to race and sexual identity. Here's to continuing on this journey with book three.
