such a good fantasy read. i would highly recommend for ages 15 and above. please check the content warnings before reading though. it might be too overwhelming for some people. i would not recommend this book as like the very first book you read as a teen. start with something more lighthearted and easy to read. read this after like 5 different books or so. its a really good book for getting into fantasy though!
(the content warnings i've put is for both the first and second book of this duology)

I give this ⭐⭐⭐. It was a bit of a formulaic plot, and rather easy to guess the next event due to this. I like the seafaring lore peppered throughout. It was a bit violent in moments by my taste, mostly due to the stated age of characters involved, but not overtly. All in all a good, quick read. I am going to read the next in the series, which is the nicest thing I think I could say about it.
Daughter of the Pirate King is about Alosa, and her mission. She is tasked to allow herself to be kidnapped by a rival crew in order to steal an item from them. A prisoner in the midst of this ruthless crew, Alosa knows her spoils are close at hand. As soon as her captors turn their backs, she leaves to explore the boat. Her most formidable obstacle will be first mate Riden, who is particularly intelligent, and above all very attractive. The young woman has more than one trick up her sleeve, and no one can stop the Pirate King's daughter!
