There is nothing worse for a pirate than dying on dry land. Except, maybe, swinging two feet above it. When their captain is imprisoned, facing the gallows, the men and women of the Lady Lesya's crew will try everything to break him out--even if it means fighting guards in ridiculous uniforms, bargaining with overweight monsters, and risking the life of the more or less innocent. Add vengeful local thugs, a mysterious killer with a grudge, and some unexpected ghosts to this already perilous task, and the streets of Puerto Seguro turn into a bloodbath. To get out of the town alive, the brethren of the coast will have to act not just as a crew, but as a family. ___________________ As it's a pirate story not created by Disney, expect strong language, violence, gore, and allusion to sex. But also humor, strong characters, and a touch of love. The story, three years and a half in the making, is now complete (and under revision). ____________________ Magnificent cover by @Tweeter109 Awesome headers by @FayLane

Now, his left it all to Allah to find the 'one' but what happens when the one Allah chose for him is totally different than he imagined. Reviews: "The concept behind this story really intrigued me, since I don't really know a lot about the Muslim religion. The novel gives a great representation and explanation to the religion, even to those who aren't necessarily a part of it.'' ''I found it hard to put down, the characters were very realistic to read about and resembled real people I felt I could root for throughout the entire story. My overall favourite had to be Muhammad because of all the depth and devotion you placed into his character. '' ''Grammatically, I didn't really find any errors, which is both an impressive feat and something you should be proud of. I have to complain to a lot of authors for dialogue that seems like it's forced and unnatural, but your story's dialogue made me feel like I was right there as your characters were talking. Overall, a wonderful work that definitely deserved first place at The Dreamer Awards." First published on Saturday 17/6/17 / 7 PM Last published on Saturday 18/11/17 / 3:59 PM
