This sequel maintained the quality of story and writing, and it included more character growth, good dialogues, at least one good plot twist, and lots of action. This is a well written YA story with diverse characters and main characters that promote amazing values without dumbing things down for the audience. I might have enjoyed the first book a bit more just because I was new to Mexican mythology and more engaged through learning, but this brings a well planned ending to an adventure that was worth experiencing.
