Haven’t read the Scimitar Seas books yet? Well, if you dream of sailing azure seas and wielding the power of wind and wave, these novels are for you.
Let me introduce you to the first book of the series, Scimitar Moon, gold medal winner in the 2009 ForeWord Reviews Book of the Year Awards.
The pirate Bloodwind has destroyed everything that Cynthia Flaxal ever loved. But Cynthia has plans for revenge. She will build ships to out-sail any corsair, and starve the pirate nation to death. But Bloodwind covets Cynthia’s new ships, and Odea, goddess of the sea, has her own plans. So when Cynthia’s ships set sail, her quest for revenge becomes a battle for the control of the high seas.
