Praise
“Levenseller has created a formidable female character who can take care of herself as she makes some hard decisions. Hand to skilled readers seeking true adventure with swashbuckling, sword fighting, and a great problem-solving heroine.” —School Library Journal
“Levenseller makes an impressive debut with this funny, fast-paced, and romance-dashed nautical fantasy, set in an alternate world of pirates, sirens, and myriad islands….This one’s not to be missed.” — Publishers Weekly, starred review
“The word that comes to mind while reading Levenseller’s delightful first novel is “swagger”—because both the characters and the story do so, with aplomb…The sense of adventure, the smart dialogue (internal and external), and the surprise twists make this a book that floats in front of you, delighting at every turn.” —Jeff Somers, B&N Sci-Fi and Fantasy Blog
