tragedeke's review against another edition

eh
edit: honestly even though this is a children's book i was expecting a bit more. it had a lot of potential and the story technically works but i couldn't get attached to it or the characters at all. plot points got moved on too fast in my opinion and i just don't like it

I enjoyed reading all about Hector's adventures; history is so much more lively when described in fiction like this than in dry history books.

Littered with historical detail this starts in Baltimore in West Cork, Ireland and moves to the Mediterranean through several bouts of slavery and various survival that seems to be subordinate to the historical details.
Interesting but doesn't really make me want to read the rest in the series.
