Editorial Reviews

Praise for Daughter of the Siren Queen:

"This lady Jack Sparrow is back, and she's fiercer and wittier than ever!" —Elly Blake, New York Times bestselling author of Frostblood

"Levenseller is just as much a siren as her protagonist—her words will pull you in, and there's no escaping them." —Charlie N. Holmberg, author of The Paper Magician Series.

"Levenseller comes into her own in this sequel to Daughter of the Pirate King (2017), penning an argh-worthy blend of pirate derring-do and lively romance. ... Deadly sirens join the ranks of strong, smart females in this book, giving it a definite feminist edge." —Booklist

"The author has yet again captured the adventure, romance, and ruthless ways of the high seas in this sequel to Daughter of the Pirate King. ... This fast-moving adventure with strong female characters would be great for those who love a good pirate story, a touch of romance, and action-packed sword fighting." —School Library Journal

"This is for fans of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise who will definitely be on board with this female Jack Sparrow and her crew." — VOYA

Praise for Daughter of the Pirate King:

"Readers should rejoice, because we now have a lady Jack Sparrow on our hands! Daughter of the Pirate King kidnapped my interest from the first chapter and never let it go! It's a superior debut with a deeply entangled romance, a fearsome heroine not to be trifled with, a clever hero that you seriously want to trifle with, and a plot twist that makes a rollercoaster seem stable. With a cunning plot, robust writing, and complicated characters, any reader will enjoy being manipulated in Levenseller's capable hands. Definitely for fans of Pirates of the Caribbean, fierce heroines, slow-burning romances, and adventures that can turn sour in the space of a gasp. Not for fans of complacent heroines, soothing plots, or those who don't speak sarcasm." —Anna Banks, author of the New York Times Bestseller Of Triton

" Levenseller has created a formidable female character who can take care of herself as she makes some hard decisions. Hand to skilled readers seeking true adventure with swashbuckling, sword fighting, and a great problem-solving heroine." —School Library Journal

"Levenseller makes an impressive debut with this funny, fast-paced, and romance-dashed nautical fantasy, set in an alternate world of pirates, sirens, and myriad islands....This one’s not to be missed." — Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Tricia Levenseller's vivacious debut novel, the first in a duology, boasts stormy seas, sexy pirates, swordplay and a heroine who conquers all three with aplomb.... A rip-roaring high seas escapade with a tinge of fantasy, Daughter of the Pirate King will engage and enthrall its teen audience." — Shelf Awareness

From the Publisher

01/01/2018
Gr 7 Up—The author has yet again captured the adventure, romance, and ruthless ways of the high seas in this sequel to Daughter of the Pirate King. It picks up with the story of Alosa, a half-siren, half-human princess who is captain of the Ava-lee, a ship with an almost all-women crew. The group is a hardened lot made up of top-notch fighters. It's also a very tight-knit family. Alosa has finally recovered the last piece of an ancient map that will lead her father to the ultimate treasure. When she and her crew reach her father's keep, they discover that Alosa's mother, a siren, has been held captive by her father for 18 years. Alosa was always told that her mother abandoned her. In order to free her mother, Alosa knows she will have to face her father and his fleet of 20-plus pirate ships. The book's main focus is the upcoming showdown between the betrayed daughter and her legendary cruel father. Threaded throughout is a secondary story line about the budding romance between Riden and Alosa. The protagonist refuses to give into her feelings until she realizes that Riden is the only one who can help her control the her siren side. This fast-moving adventure with strong female characters would be great for those who love a good pirate story, a touch of romance, and action-packed sword fighting. VERDICT A strong choice for fantasy fans and those who enjoyed Traci Chee's The Reader or Heidi Heilig's books.—Erin Olsen, The Brearley School, New York City

School Library Journal

Marisa Calin’s delivery of this audiobook is superbly executed. Alosa, the daughter of the Pirate King and the Siren Queen, has the power to enchant men with her song. She has always done her father’s bidding, but after discovering a secret that her father has kept from her all her life, her loyalties change. With her crew she races to the Isla de Canta in order to be the first to claim treasure known to be there. Calin portrays Alosa and her crew with care and zeal. The enticing voice she gives Alosa will enrapture listeners and draw them deeper into the story’s twists and turns. A.M. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
