Q: Do I have to buy the ebook to participate in a book club?

No, you don’t have to buy the ebook to participate, but we do recommend it to get the most out of your club. There are several premium social reading features that are only available when you buy the ebook, like annotations, reactions, comment threads, resources, discussion prompts, and more, all embedded right in the text. It’s a unique and immersive way to read.

Q: Why can’t I buy the ebook on the app?

It’s annoying, we know. App store rules prevent us from selling directly in the app, so for now you can only purchase ebooks on our website. Don’t worry: when you purchase an ebook on the web, it’s automatically added to your bookshelf in the app.

Q: How is Fable’s reader different from Kindle?

Kindle is a straightforward e-reader; Fable is an interactive e-reader that includes social features inside the ebooks. When you read an ebook on Fable, you can see and react to the text with others in real time. Start a discussion, share highlights and quotes, add emoji reactions—all of it lives right inside the book. It’s hard to explain and easy to see, so we recommend reading the free sample in one of our most active clubs to get a feel for it.

Publisher Description

Captain Ian Flynn would die for any one of his crew…if he could. Now he might have to. Because one of the only known weapons able to kill an immortal is missing. The Spear of Destiny—a priceless religious artifact from the crucifixion—is in the hands of his ship’s ruthless ex-captain. Now the lives of the Sea Dog’s immortal pirate crew are all at risk…along with the headstrong mortal Ian never should have fallen for.

Writer Lily Bouchard isn’t sure what’s worse. That she fell for Ian Flynn only to get her heart broken, or that she romanticized the man like he was some gorgeous viking straight out of a movie. So when he shows up suddenly with some absurd tale of immortal pirates and mythical religious relics, Lily doesn’t know what to think. He’s always had a wildness beneath his well-tailored appearance…but how could any of this possibly be real?

Now a centuries-old vendetta between two pirate captains has erupted, and Ian will do anything to keep Lily safe—even if it means risking everything. But she won’t give him up without a fight.

The only thing more dangerous than killing an immortal is falling for one…

“This was the first book in the series that I have read and I truly enjoyed the storyline. I love the spins on the paranormal and history. I would 100% recommend this book. We learn that Captain Ian Flynn and his crew are immortal because they found and drank from the Holy Grail. Because of this, Captain Flynn's idea of love and life has been tarnished. What he once thought about love turns out to be different than how he currently feels. Throughout the story, he tries to redeem himself with his crew and the woman he has fallen in love with, Lily Bouchard. Lily is mad. Several months ago, Ian walked out of her life and disappeared without a word. Now what she thought would be a nice change of scenery for her writing has brought her face-to-face with her ex. But what she thinks she knows and sees is wrong on all fronts. Ian desperately tries to convince her that the reason for him ghosting her was to protect her, but a broken heart can be hard to heal when it's been broken the same way before. As Lily searches her heart to forgive the Captain, an old nemesis of his shows up to ruin it all. Can Ian prove that what he did was totally out of love and protect the woman he loves? Will his past come to finish him off and take him from her? Can people change for the better?”

“This story is all about Captain Ian Flynn, the ultimate badass immortal pirate, on a mission to protect his crew and the love of his life, Lily Bouchard. But things get crazy when the Spear of Destiny, this relic that can kill immortals, goes missing. And guess who's behind it? Ian's archenemy, Morgan, seeking revenge. The intensity in this book is off the charts! Ian and Lily are thrown back into each other's lives, and Ian has to earn back her trust while dealing with danger and a secret society. Action? Yup. Romance? Oh yeah, it's sizzling. And there's even a chance for them to make things right and find love again. The story wraps up the whole series in the most thrilling and satisfying way. Seriously, you'll be on the edge of your seat the entire time. Don't even think about missing out on this electrifying conclusion!”

“We finally get Captain Ian Flynn's story but it also marks the end of this series. It's sad but I'm happy we got to know Captain Ian on a deeper level. Lily was a great addition to the crew as well. Thank you so much to the author this series overall was full of adventure and spice. Captain Ian Fynn hasn't worried much about his life as an immortal until now. Someone has stolen the Spear of Destiny from Department 13 and if it falls into the wrong hands, every one of the Sea Dog's crew is in danger. Writer Lily Bouchard is trying to mend her broken heart. Ian walked away without any explanation and now here he is with a wild tale about immortal pirates and religious artifacts. She can't wrap her mind around all this at first but he also warns her that someone from his past is looking to settle an old score. So she is also in danger. He'll do anything to keep her safe but Lily doesn't want any more secrets between them and she wants an equal partnership going forward. She's falling in love with the immortal pirate all over again and Ian wants to spend the rest of his life with her. Thank you so much to the author, Entangled, and NetGalley for this ARC to review.”

“Ian Flynn, former captain of the Sea Dog, has always been a bit of an enigma. Ruthless, determined but capable of kindness and understanding. Now we get to see what makes this immortal pirate tick! Ian and Morgan were once Captain and First Mate but Ian led a mutiny and consequently became the new captain of the freshly named Sea Dog. But Morgan didn't die on the island they stranded him on and he found his own way to immortality. Now he has it in for the Sea Dog crew. Lily is a journalist and writer and had her heart broken by Ian. She doesn't realise that the break up was to keep her safe and new she's walked right back into his life and into the crosshairs of Morgan. She knows nothing of the crews immortality so she is in for a bit of bumpy ride on her introduction to this secret world. Ian really made a rod for his own back with the crew. He didn't give them the benefit of the doubt to try and understand his motives which led to the original Sea Dog's destruction. He just let them treat him like a pariah. He still tried to look after him even when they all but excommunicated him! The crew did band together when the danger comes calling. I loved Lily's reaction to the shady world the crew lives in. Her world crashes down around her and she takes it on the chin. She's determined, loyal and ready to take on this new challenge. Ian puts his foot in it a few times between mansplaining things and TELLING her what she needs to do instead of allowing her to make her own decision. But he finally gets clue! Lots of action and adventure. Smexiness. Secrets and taut détentes!”
