The first thing about this book that caught my eye was the cover. I then proceeded to download an excerpt and from there I was hooked. I immediately bought the book and started reading. This story is told from the different characters in this book: Captain Jonathan Griffith, Katherine Lindsay (heroine), Nathan Adams (deckhand/pirate), Donald Thatcher (ship surgeon), Edward Livingston (quartermaster) and a couple others.This tale gives the readers a real look into what the life, as a pirate would truly be like. I found myself becoming immersed in the story line and with the characters. The fight scenes are realistic and violent. There is a touch of romance here between Katherine and Captain Griffin and you wonder how things will play out. I do have to say the ending surprised me. I usually read paranormal/urban fantasy genre books and was looking for something a little different when I discovered this gem of a tale. I love the fact that the author incorporated some real historical characters in this tale. This story was an amazing read. I am looking forward to reading book two in this series. I highly recommend this book.
