Maybe its because there was SO much hype around it I expected it to grab me more. I'm still interested in reading the next one. ( ) Thanks to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for letting me read and review this interesting story. I have only read one or two other of Adrienne Young's books and they all seem to be written in the same way although they have different stories told in each one, of course. I liked this one alright, but it was a bit of a letdown for me in comparison to all the hype, which seems to be a common occurrence for me with books that have a lot of hype. After reading and finishing the story, thinking about it for a little while, and letting it speak for itself, I liked it more than when I had been interested because of the hype. This is a pirate story with adventure, intrigue, some romance, and troubled relationships with family and such. There's a lot of great and exciting journey while figuring out how to find their way in the cutthroat world of pirates, slavery, and such. Fable finds a way to get back to her father after having been left by him on an island after her mother died 4 years earlier because she wants to be on the crew and sail with her father, who is the most powerful trader in the Narrows. She recruits and becomes friends with a trader, West, and his crew to help her to get back to her father so she can claim her rightful spot on her father's ship as his crew member. But there's more that Fable doesn't know about West and who he is and about the rivalries and dangers of the trading business that her father runs so they have to survive through worse than the Narrows to beat all the things that come up in their path. If you like Adrienne Young's writing and other books, or pirate books with intrigue, secrets, treachery, and romance with a strong female MC that goes through a lot and still keeps on going no matter what then you'll enjoy this one too! Fable survives by diving deep under the water to dredge up precious materials she can trade for coin. But her success makes her a target. She negotiates passage with a trader she hopes she can trust, intending to reunite with the father who abandoned her after his ship went down in a storm, killing Fable's mother. Fable has to figure out how to carve out a place for herself among the crew of the Marigold during the journey. But something about the Marigold's operaton doesn't make sense and Fable is certain she isn't the only person on the ship harboring dangerous secrets. A fun, engaging, pirate-type story with a skilled but flawed main character who uses her wits to survive one dangerous situation after another. This is the first book of a duology and I'm looking forward to diving into the second half. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
