Synopsis

A young healer woman sets sail to kill her enemies and steal the heart of the prince her rival desires. She encounters deadrousers, cannibals and lunatics as she hunts for epic treasures and love. She finds out she can be everything she wants to be: a doctor and a healer of thieves, a lover and an impressively rich spirit aunt, but the price she has to pay will be paid in blood.



Serenica Ingram is a brave witch in her twenties. She would do anything to be even better at healing. Mariana Kinley, a witch-hating witch and a ruthless businesswoman, doesn't like competition and drives Serenica out of her home. She joins the pirate crew of the necromancer, Captain Spade.



The city of Neul that Serenica calls home is a hostile and degenerate place, ripe with rich merchants and homeless witches, but the mythical island of outlaws, Aja Vana, is even stranger. The western islands are populated by outcasts and Serenica would do anything to avoid them.



Becoming a rich and respected pirate healer isn't easy, especially with both other witches and royals wanting Serenica dead. She has to sail to the ends of the known world just to get her stolen property back, and even harder will be to catch the eye of the Dreamer, the fair prince whom Kinley also desires, while fulfilling the promise to kill a king.



WARNING: s*icide mentions, very mild cursing, violence, blood so please use caution when reading.

Such an intriguing story! Very unique and fascinating! I only saw a few pirate-themed books and some are set for male leads- but an MC that is a female? A healer and a brave character? Count me in! The synopsis piques your interest and reveals information you need to look forward to in the book aside from that! The first chapter is like an exciting door for a new world- an alternative universe where we ride the wildest seas that could ever be sailed across the world! I'll follow Serenica in her adventures! \(@^0^@)/ I'm excited about this book! definitely deserve five-star ratings!

Very high quality writing, an original story, good MC, and action make this a great read for anyone. There's development visible instead of just weak to experienced for no reason. Its a good quality story and should be a solid pick

I have never understood why writers are supposed to feel bad about their own stories. I can confidently say that this is one of my favorite books - of all time, and that is something I value. The soft yet brave MC. The humor. The thrills. I love my own book to bits, and I am not ashamed to say it. This novel is my sole purpose in life, so rest assured, your comments and gifts are cherished. I will always reply as soon as possible.

The descriptive words is great, it's enough to make me imagine the scene. I've always wanted to write about pirates but I'm lacking of knowledge, your book might be the inspiration of my chapter arcs about pirates. Due to its description, you already felt as a reader what setting are you in.

Fantastic story, idea, and plot. I enjoyed reading what i have read so far and believe that others will definitely enjoy it as well. It was rather unique and your creativity is not to be looked down upon. The MC was a highlight for me through their situations and how everything was described. Keep up the good work.

This is the second book of this author which I'm reading. I've noticed a similarity between the author's way with the words. The author is really good at mixing up the real life circumstances in a simple and very effective manner with the novel. The world background is really great and it has no useless fan servicing. This is my type of novel. The story development is something I crave for. I like how greatly sketched out the characters are. Updating stability is frequent. This book has some really awesome characteristics. I can see this book's potential of getting popular. Best of luck in writing!
