Sadly not nearly as good as the first one. The plot, which was such a strength in the first book, was pretty messy. We spend the first third of the book focused on one mission then the other two thirds focused on another and I found myself wondering when are we going to get back to mission #1, and why did we spend so much time there? It made the whole thing much less satisfying and entertaining. However, I do love pirate content so I was 't too mad. The characters were great and even better fleshed out in this one.
