Very entertaining! Although the ship terms at first were a bit confusing, you catch on. I called out Captain Jaggery on his murder, and was so happy that she returned to the "Seahawk." I really hoped she would.

I was rereading this excellent book with students and decided to drop it when the school year ended.

I loved this book when I was a kid, and read it over and over, but this was my first time picking it up in probably fifteen years. It was just as swashbuckling as I remembered, and I had forgotten several of the plot twists. :)
