Review: Pirate Adventures
Rating: 5 out of 5

This is book #1 of another trilogy and I didn't flip out over the last one I read, so I came into this with misgivings. This one, however, lived up to expectations. The characters and the situations grabbed me right off the starting line and wouldn't let go. These pirates fly blimp-type ships to do their marauding in, and the book has an airship that changes hands continually as two factions of pirates keep taking it from one another. Some funny stuff here, along with the serious. There is magic included in the book as well as a guild of Machanists to handle the machinery. There are demons who sit on the shoulders of the Aetherists and who help perform their magics. There is fabulous treasure to be had, unknown civilizations of alien species, spectacular feats of flying and all the other things that make for a great adventure. I can't wait to read book #2.
