The Wicked Bargain by Gabe Cole Novoa
4.0
I am convinced at this point that Gabe Cole Novoa can do no wrong. This needs to be on more people’s queer pirate book lists. It’s got everything: a nonbinary lead who can wield magic; Latine pirates in the Caribbean taking action against oppressors; literal deals with the devil…I had such a blast!
The writing is so rich, really sucks you into this world! I love how Mar’s identity as a nonbinary person blended together with their magia. I love Mar and Bas’ chemistry and how would bounce off each other. And Dami is such a standout character with their shapeshifting! Can’t wait to read more of them in The Diablo’s Curse 🙏
Between this and picking up Pirates of Aletharia, I may be stumbling into my Pirate Era™️ myself 😅
