“Time-traveling pirates, whimsical humor, a sentient ship, and
cliffhanger predicaments deliver generous helpings of quirky,
retro-tinged entertainment.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Third-person narration with memorable characters, an enticing
plot, and some cool steampunklike magic will attract readers who

for fantasy adventure fans.” — School Library Journal

science fiction and mystery.” — Bulletin of the Center for
Children’s Books
