Publisher's summary

The Little Mermaid takes a twisted turn in this thrilling sequel to villainess origin story Sea Witch, as the forces of land and sea clash in an epic battle for freedom, redemption, and true love.

Runa will not let her little sister die. Alia traded her voice to the sea witch for a shot at happiness with a prince who doesn’t love her. And his rejection will literally kill her - unless Runa intervenes.

Under the sea, Evie craves her own freedom - but liberation from her role as sea witch will require an exchange she may not be willing to make.

With their hearts’ desires at odds, what will Runa and Evie be willing to sacrifice to save their worlds?

Told from alternating perspectives, this epic fairy-tale retelling is a romantic and heart-wrenching story about the complications of sisterhood, the uncompromising nature of magic, and the cost of redemption.

It was cool

It wasn't as good as the first book but it was most definitely a decent read. It was an okay follow up to the first book.

Great Book!

Loved listening to this book. Parts of the book can be slow, but, like the first book in this series, it had a great ending.

A story that comes full circle.

I love how this story sets you on the edge of your seat from the first book, keeps you there throughout, and brings it all back around full circle by the end. So beautiful, so imaginative, so creative, it's just a masterful piece of art in form of the written word.

Another Slithering Smash!!

Sarah Henning brought back characters we came to know and adore, while finding a way to seamlessly transition into a new time and characters, This thrilling new chapter into the lives of the Sea Witch, the Polyps, and the little mermaid who fell in love feels like a final ending to the conflicts between the magic of the land and sea,

Beautiful

This was just amazing. I was fully immersed into this story, just as the one before it. The narration was perfection and I really do not believe it could have been done better. I am sad that it is over, but very satisfied with the end of this enchanting story. Loved it and will recommend.

Unusual and Brilliant

My first impression was admittedly not great. The voices I have the readers here are less perky and a bit dark as well. That, along with the book having been written in present tense, was a slightly off putting.
Give it a few chapters... soon you will begin to see those as perfectly complementary and maybe even essential to the telling of the story.
The Sea Witch refers to the first request bringer as “the little mermaid”, but this story isn’t about her. It’s about her twin sister trying to bring her back home during what I believe is meant to be portrayed as WW1 and takes a surprising turn in a direction I never would have imagined. It is so well done, a seamless transition from what do you think you are reading!
The depth of the main characters and unpredictable nature of this story are perfectly balanced and refreshing.
Many young adult titles are a bit to adult-ish for young teens or pre-teens who really want to dive headfirst into the genre, but not this one.
