Death's Child [Pirate Academy, Book Two]


Book Description

Nar may have passed her Test of Bravery, but the danger is just starting. After completing the first half of her pirate training at Islanda Nylar, Nar should be relieved that a dangerous enemy is dead and another is subdued. But of course it's not that simple, for another, even more dangerous foe lives. And Nar's deathly magic just might be the key to the most powerful and dangerous treasure in the world. Whoever gains it will have control over the land and seas. So much for slipping away and controlling her own destiny. Kale's not helping with that decision, either. His mixed signals to Nar are beyond frustrating, and she may not escape without leaving everything and everyone she cares about. If she stays, Nar may have to learn about her own past, which she'd rather leave undiscovered... Can Nar stop the enslavement of the world, and sacrifice everything she holds dear to do it?

It has an optimistic view of the potential of children to surprise us with their language and emphasises that literacy is for life, not just for an hour.
