This was action-packed and really drew me in. I liked it better than Myklusch's Jack Blank series. Dean was a complex character and the complexity of the other characters, especially the various types of pirates involved was interesting. The moral dilemmas faced by Dean and his friends are intriguing and the character development is authentic. I look forward to the rest of the series.It was a fun middle grade piratical book. Lots of high seas action, pirates with and without morals, and great friendships. Dean is a great character. He gets stomped on pretty often, but he always gets back up with a bang. My only issue with this book, was that for the entire world, there was only one female character. And she, of course, was the damsel in distress. Mothers never survive past giving birth, I suppose, since she's pretty much the only girl who gets any screen time. Aside from
Dont let the lurid cover fool you this is a completely kid-friendly book!This book is essentially Pirates of the Caribbean for tweens with a dash of Treasure Planet.Is it over the top? Yes. Is it preposterous? Yes.But the key phrase here is preposterously FUN. This book allows middle grade readers to unabashedly fulfill their swashbuckling imaginations to the fullest and does not hold back on heroics or adventures. While I was reading it, it was almost like I was a kid again, visualizing myself
Well, first of all, the book was quite good (for the most part)The story begins with our protagonist Dean Seaborne, a 13 year old pirate spy who worksfor the infamous (for his temper patience and kind heart) pirate king One-Eyed Jack. One-Eyed Jack, is in one of his tempers because Dean tried (unsuccessfully) to run away (well I don't blame him).Moving on, Dean is given a second chance to redeem himself. Dean's mission is to find out why Gentlemen Jim, a pirate captain who works for "One-Eyed
An unforgettable adventure on the high seas. Packed with humor, some danger, action, and a 13 year old hero you won't soon forget. This is the perfect beginning for a series you'll definitely want to read.4.5 stars FULL REVIEW http://mundiekids.blogspot.com/2017/0...
This action-packed pirate fantasy adventure for the middle grade set starts out with a bang: Dean Seaborne, a 13 year old self-described "pirate spy," is being dunked in a cage in the ocean . . . after the pirates have thrown chum in the water to attract sharks. The pirate captain, One-Eyed Jack, is bent out of shape because Dean tried to run away. After sufficient groveling and promise-making, One-Eyed Jack has Dean hauled back up, suitably chastened, and sends him off on another spy mission.
