Amina is a protagonist I’d love to just hang out with. She’s confident in her skills as a captain and knows how to run a tight ship. The seasoned mariner viewpoint was refreshing after multiple books with young voices. I can’t wait to read her next adventure. 

 

The audiobook was fantastic. They made it feel like an oral history recording with “off-mic” asides included.
