Oooh, I'm a big fan of fantasy novels, especially historical fantasy. I can't tell if this is historical, but it's a similar niche, and the book appears to be pretty well written based on your review. I might try it out :)

Brandy, Ballad of a Pirate Princess ~ is a Pirate Book telling of this little pirate girl, living in a pirate life. Action-packed. Well-written. Great reading of a pirate girl being raised on a pirate ship. Very entertaining. Thrilling. Adventurous.


Wonderful description on distance, location and travel condition. Suspenseful Girl Pirate. Battles. Emotions comes mind.

This book sounds like a lot of fun! Pirates, curses, battles - what more could you want? I'm curious to see the ties between slavery and piracy and how that subject is handled. Thank you for your review!

This sounds like a great book to delve into the world of pirates and the high seas again since it has been quite a while I read about them. I wonder if Brandy's life was as tumultuous as the waves of the sea. Great review, I thoroughly enjoyed the

This historical fiction sounds pretty intriguing. Though the gore and the slavery conditions may be off-putting for me, I imagine that Brandy, Ballad of a Pirate Princess would compel the reader who enjoys historical fiction novels about pirates. Thanks for the great review!

A strong young-female protagonist incorporating adventure and life lessons during the early-to-mid 1800s is a historical fiction book that sounds exciting. I started reading the sample on Amazon and didn't want to stop; it's been added to my reading list. Great review!

"Brandy Ballad of a Pirate Princess" by Dan E. Hendrickson - A swashbuckling pirate tale involving Brandy, orphaned by the British Navy Armada that killed her mother, and a crew-member who killed her father. 15 years later, Brandy meets a blue-eyed, attractive sailor, and the story continues from there. Truly wonderful review by Bertha Jackson. Thanks.
