The plot is filled with stealthy escapes, witty banter, surprise attacks, and more.

There are major twists and some hidden hints along the way. The plot is fast-paced and easy to follow since Alosa has one main task: find the map. So, here I am with my second attempt at a review. A few months later and I wanted to reread Daughter of the Pirate King again, because who can resist a swashbuckling, young adult pirate book with a kick-ass female main character. I then started to write a review, but never finished. I read this book immediately when it released February 2017. When things take a turn for the worse, she has to work with Riden to save his life, preserve her secrets, and escape their kidnappers. Along the way, she gets caught “trying to escape” or “exacting revenge.” But she is really hiding her true motive and her true abilities.

So she spends every night searching the Nightfarer. She has no idea if the sons know about the map, or if they are hiding it. So, she purposely gets captured by the sons (Riden and Draxen) of one of her father’s, recently deceased, competitor, Jeskor. As the future queen, Alosa wants the treasure just as much. He is determined to get the other two thirds, and claim the mysterious island for himself. As one of three descendants of the first pirates, Alosa’s father has one piece of a map that leads to The Treasure. Her father monopolized the sea and now rules over all who sail on it.
