4 stars!!
After following the siren princess on a hunt, we jump straight onto the boat of a prince, Elias, who is acting more pirate captain than the next King of Midas. Elias and his crew on the Saad hunt sirens, making the world a safer place for the other kingdoms.
Lira is known as the Princes Bane, every year on her birthday she steals the heart of a prince, but after upsetting her mother, the Sea Queen she is punished by being made human, with the one goal of taking Elias’ heart. She’s lost her power and understanding what it’s like to be human while trying to fool the crew of the Saad into thinking she’s an innocent girl.
I enjoyed this story, the love interest angle is discreet but works well as a backstory that you can’t miss out, the supporting characters are all likeable for their honour, history and valour; Lira and Elias are characters that seems to surprise themselves which makes the twists interesting.
As for the Sea Queen, she’s the only character I could picture easily – in my head I say her as Ursula.
Overall, I would describe this book with one word – FUN!
