Week 46 Review: Vengeance of the Pirate Queen

From Goodreads:

Pirates of the Caribbean meets The Mummy in Vengeance of the Pirate Queen, a beautifully designed standalone YA fantasy romance, set in the world of Tricia Levenseller's Daughter of the Pirate King.

You can't be afraid of the dark when you're the monster lurking in the shadows.

As an assassin working for the pirate queen, eighteen-year-old Sorinda is surprised when Alosa's next task for her is not to kill a new target, but to captain a handpicked crew on a rescue mission. Unfortunately, her sailing master is twenty-year-old Kearan. He may be the best helmsman the pirate queen has, but Sorinda finds him a real pain in the arse. Sadly, there are few places on a ship to hide from an attentive man.

As the crew of the Vengeance faces dangerous waters and deadly sea creatures, they accidentally awaken the King of the Undersea, a being who can control the dead. Their rescue mission quickly turns into a fight to save the world, but first, Sorinda must save herself from becoming an undead queen.

My Review:
I had such a great time reading this book! I've really enjoyed her books, but I didn't think about picking up this series until I had the chance to read this book, but I'm glad I did, because I enjoyed the whole series, they were all so good! 

Sorinda is an assassin, who we didn't really know much about in the first two books, so I'm glad that we got this time to get to know her and follow along on this adventure! And boy, was it an adventure! From a rescue mission to a a survival mission, to dealing with the bad guy, yeah, there was a lot and I loved it! 

I felt so badly for Sorinda, the weight that she carries, of the guilt from her past, that was a heavy burden. That she keeps everyone at arms' length, I understand, but I'm glad that with Kearan's help, she started to move on and move forward. 

There aren't really sirens in this book besides Alosa, but the impact on this story, loved it, with the whole King of the Undersea. Loved watching them work to overcome him, especially with what he did to her. It was so entertaining to watch how they won the day! 

This was a fantastic read and I can't wait to read more by Tricia Levenseller! And if we get more books following other characters in this series, I would absolutely read them!
