The Black Lung Captain by Chris Wooding

2.0

While not as magical and fairy tale-like as its predecessor, the Black Lung Captain still feels like an action packed pirate (and space alien) adventure. The book follows a set of outcast pirates on a zepellin like pirateship, chasing after a magical sphere said to be worth millions. It turns out the sphere summons space pirates called "manes", and the story unfolds as a treasure hunt turns into a save-the-world-and-the-crew hunt.

Definitely would recommend the book as its funny and never stops to captivate the reader. The rating really only reflects my feeling towards the first book, as it offered a more lively world for the reader
