A definite favourite. Such an incredibly light, but engaging read with a promise of more to come. All characters were interesting and fun to read about and explore, and the actual plot and setting itself felt like a strong breath of air in terms of a subgenre like this. Recommend to anyone into pirate and trader books, with hunts for missing treasure, escapes from islands, battles on and off seas, big plot twists, and characters to fall in love with entirely.
Graphic: Abandonment, Death of parent, Death, Injury/Injury detail, and Violence
Moderate: Kidnapping
