Seafire
ByPublisher Description
A warlord killed Caledonia's parents and kidnapped her brother. Now, on the deadly Bullet seas, Captain Caledonia Styx and her all-female crew are ready for revenge.
"This is Mad Max by way of Davy Jones, a high-energy, breathless adventure [about] a group of damaged girls who find home in one another." --Booklist
"The pace of the book is fast and relentless, and the action sequences tense and believable, but the best moments are the ones in which the female relationships shine." --NPR
"One of the most spell-binding adventures of the year. This is female piracy at its best." --The San Francisco Chronicle
"The best kind of fantasy. . . . impossible to put down." --Paste
After her family is killed by corrupt warlord Aric Athair and his bloodthirsty army of Bullets, Caledonia Styx is left to chart her own course on the dangerous and deadly seas. She captains her ship, the Mors Navis, with a crew of girls and women just like her, who have lost their families and homes because of Aric and his men. The crew has one mission: stay alive, and take down Aric's armed and armored fleet.
But when Caledonia's best friend and second-in-command barely survives an attack thanks to help from a Bullet looking to defect, Caledonia finds herself questioning whether to let him join their crew. Is this boy the key to taking down Aric Athair once and for all...or will he threaten everything the women of the Mors Navis have worked for?
The first in a heart-stopping trilogy that recalls the undeniable feminine power of Wonder Woman and the powder-keg action of Mad Max: Fury Road, Seafire reminds us of the importance of sisterhood and unity in the face of oppression and tyranny.

“This book is AMAZING!! The writing is lyrical and beautiful, perfectly capturing the ocean setting. The characters are well developed, showcasing strengths and struggling with weaknesses. I love Caledonia as a main character-she’s a powerful leader, but she’s by no means perfect, and her inner struggles add great depth to her character. I thought her turmoil over whether or not to trust Oran was really well done.
And Pisces. She’s my favorite, and I relate to her so much. I love how she refuses to view people as entirely good or evil. And her friendship with Caledonia is spectacular: they both bring out the best in one another and aren’t afraid to call each other out when they’re making a mistake.
I loved the other side characters too, especially Oran, Redtooth, and Nettle. While the romance is very minor to the plot, I totally adored it and hope we get more in future books.
I absolutely love Seafire and can’t wait for the sequel.”
