? Moss's smooth, sensory prose carries readers through the story as fluidly as Shafira's ship navigates the waters around the United Regions...A particularly well-crafted, solid fantasy adventure. --School Library Journal, STARRED Review In a cast of powerful and charmingly eccentric female characters, high-spirited Lintang distinguishes herself with a vulnerability and, often, immaturity that slowly gives way to burgeoning leadership. Women of color take center stage in this fast-paced adventure about friendship, loyalty, and defiantly fighting for one's destiny. --Publishers Weekly The world Lintang resides in is inventive and nicely established... and the story is an immersive delight for any fan of fantasy fiction. --Booklist An imaginative premise. --Kirkus Fans of adventure on the roiling seas will find a lot to love in this Australian import. Reading like a cross between Moana and Pirates of the Caribbean, the swiftly moving plot is action packed, with plenty of on-deck swordfights, near-escapes, monsters, and magic. --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books --No Source
