The combination of such a fun and unique world, the pirate plot, and believable character arcs made this such an enjoyable and engaging read/listen.
The pace of this book is relatively fast which fits a pirate motif. It keeps you going and does not have many, if any, drags. The handling of the dual POV is well-done. There is a pretty even split, both narrators do an excellent job, and you can feel identify the separate voices of the two characters.
What more can I say than who would love a pirate high seas adventure set in a really interesting world with storm singers, an other world, future-seers, magically charismatic villains, and ghost-like beings? And uniquely set in a wintery sea setting instead of the traditional tropics or Caribbean.
