The Further Exploits of the Pirate Queens


The Further Exploits of the Pirate Queens

By James Grant Goldin
Narrated by:- Gill Mills
Genre:- Historical Fiction with pirates!
Blurb:- Pirate Queen Anne Bonny has a secret-a baby daughter named Kate! The baby’s being raised by friends in Cuba, and Anne, worried that her reputation as the scarlet-haired scourge of the Caribbean would be undermined by motherhood has been hiding the truth from the crew of the Tigress, and even from the girl’s father, Calico Jack Rackam. But Kate’s first birthday is coming up, and Anne wants to be there. The problem is, there’s a war on, and Cuba’s behind enemy lines. So Anne turns for help to the only person she can truly trust - fellow freebooter Mary Read. Together, Anne and Mary will defy storms, sharks, shipwrecks and various murderous cutthroats to fulfill a promise. And along the way, they might just plunder Spain’s fabled Silver Fleet.

🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️My review- This is the first historical fiction audiobook I’ve listened to as I don’t normally use audiobooks. The narrator was clear and I loved how she went from one character to another will no problem, she pulled you into the story as it went along. I loved the close relationship Anne and Mary had together, they were very clever and new how to play people to get what they wanted. I especially love when Anne and Mary tried to make a fire, they were sweating so much it was putting the fire out, so in the end they used some of their own hair. The author made you feel as if you were part of the story, which is something I love. I will be watching for the next book coming out
