Caledonia Styx, captain of the Mors Navis, abides by simple rules to keep her all female crew alive: no Bullets, act together or not at all, and the captain’s word is law. After her family is killed by the horrific warlord Aric Athair and his ruthless army of Bullets, Caledonia, along with her crew of women who have faced similar horrors, fight everyday to stay alive and take down Aric’s fleet. They fight together, laugh together, and mourn together in an unbreakable bond of sisterhood. When her friend and second in command, Pisces, is helped by a Bullet during a brutal attack, Caledonia finds herself questioning whether or not to trust him. Is he their chance to take down Aric and return what has been taken from them? Or will he bring about the destruction of everything the fierce crew of the Mors Navis has fought for? A story of sisterhood, survival, and the open sea. (Georgia Peach Book Award, 2020) |
