He's an odd looking fisherman in his village but he always catches the biggest fish. He looks more like a pirate than a fisherman. Levand asks him to teach him to fish so he will learn how he catches such big fish. That's not all he learns!
Yunka Press and Edelweiss gave me the opportunity to read this book for review (thank you). It has already been published and you can grab a copy now.
He tells Levand his name is Ben Ice and that he can read the currents in the ocean and that's how he finds the fish. It doesn't take long for him to become friends with him. And when Ben is going on adventure, he invites Levand to go with him. He leaves his aunt and his sisters behind and goes but he doesn't realize what kind of trip it will be. Ben used to be a pirate alright and now that he's on the open sea, he becomes one again.
Levand is treated like a pawn when they meet up with the pirates again. He's put in the dungeon, but he develops two friends there. Pirates don't have many friends. Ben has been searching for an elixir for his wife and he knows it went down on a ship. He joins up with another pirate to get the boxes that contain it. Someone has been there before him, the boxes of treasure are empty, but he's the only one who knows where the elixir is hidden. Before he can find it, the other pirates attack.
This is a tale of love and loss and pirates that will stick with you a while. I had to read it because it was about pirates and I'm fond of those types of stories. It was a good read and I enjoyed it.
