There will be plenty of time for me to beat him soundly once I've gotten what I came for.

Sent on a mission to retrieve an ancient hidden map - the key to a legendary treasure trove - 17-year-old pirate captain Alosa deliberately allows herself to be captured by her enemies, giving her the perfect opportunity to search their ship.

More than a match for the ruthless pirate crew, Alosa has only one thing standing between her and the map: her captor, the unexpectedly clever and unfairly attractive first mate Riden. But not to worry, for Alosa has a few tricks up her sleeve, and no lone pirate can stop the Daughter of the Pirate King.

In Daughter of the Pirate King, debut author Tricia Levenseller blends action, adventure, romance, and a little bit of magic into a thrilling YA pirate tale.

I bought this purely off a rev on a FB group I’m part of so glad I did. Inhaled it and now impatiently waiting for book 2. Fans of Sarah j Maas I reckon this is for you! No fairies lighter on romance but smart mouthed strong female lead. So good!

Enjoyable YA pirate fantasy!

Reviewed in Australia on 19 August 2020

*Read via Audible- the narrator was Marisa Calin. Which I give her narration 3 stars. I didn’t really enjoy her interpretation of Alosa. But, it wasn’t enough to turn me off the audiobook version.*

I really enjoyed this book. I am VERY late to reading it but I was looking for something easy to listen to on Audible.

I really don’t have anything to say to fault it. It was written as a typical YA fantasy but with a twist of pirates. At the time I am sure it would have been something different for the genre.

A Fun and Fast-Paced Pirate Read

Reviewed in Australia on 10 April 2017

4 Stars.

Daughter of the Pirate King was just a straight up fun read! I'm not going to blab on here and instead just dive into breaking down what I liked/didn't like.

Soooo, the plot. As a fun, fast-paced read with sword fights and treasure hunts and general pirate stuff - yes, this book features it all, but... I have to agree with other readers about this book being a little repetitive in regard to plot points. For the first 220 pages or so, the stuff that happens does become more and more familiar, though, after the 220 page mark, it does pick up and concludes really well. I didn't mind that the plot was repetitive because the book felt like it was supposed to be fun and just an enjoyable reading experience, especially with how short it is, so yeah, just a lot of fun (I think that is going to be the key word in this review).

What really carries this book is the fantastic characters and witty dialogue that never stops. Alosa is such a great character and I loved reading her voice and experiences. Riden, Daxton and all the other pirates came in well, and whilst there wasn't a big focus on some of the other pirates, I still felt like I got a really good snapshot of everyone.

The mythology was woven in well and interesting. The author has a very pleasing writing style - very easy to read and follow.

All in all, if you're a reader looking for a fun, quick pirate read, then Daughter of the Pirate King is definitely for you. I won't deny that I'll be reading on more for the characters than the mystery of the plot and I can't wait for book 2 and more pirate action!

loved it, but was very explicit at times

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 August 2020

I finished this book in two sittings, I absolutely loved it!

The pace of the story line is very fast, everything mentioned in the blurb starts off in the first chapter, which I really enjoyed. There was no waffling in the book, it was very focused on the plot and plan. The setting was described very nicely and a map of the ship is provided which really helped with imagery. I knew what the author was describing and that allowed me to enjoy the book so much more!

The writing is very basic and understandable, which I loved because I wasn't fumbling around trying to figure out how to pronounce a word or what a word meant, like some other books have made me do *cough, cough Eragon*

The main characters are likeable. Alosa is admirable, her talent, skills and wit is everything throughout this novel. I loved her persona. Riden is equally fantastic- very skilled, intelligent and funny. They complemented each other from the very beginning. Their chemistry was on fire!!! They are very compatible. The story line followed through equally with their relationship, which was very refreshing to read. Usually, there is too much focus on the relationship and little on the plot or vice versa, but this book balanced both.

Initially I thought this was a stand alone novel, but I was very excited to discover it's a duology. I have ordered the next book and I'm really excited to read it!!

The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because there are a few occasions, I think three, where it gets very sexual and explicit. I DID NOT like that at all- I think it ruined the plot. I was not prepared for it at all, especially because I was under the impression that this novel is for a younger audience. I like a little PG chemistry here and there, but not sexual intimacy in a young adult novel, especially considering the characters are so young and they barely knew each other. The way it was portrayed was horrid as well, it was completely used as manipulation and in desperateness, which will give younger readers the wrong impression and ideas about intimacy.

Apart from that criticism, I enjoyed the rest.

I need more!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 June 2019

I genuinely didn’t want this story to end. I had to will myself to put it down and drag it out for as long as I could stand.

This is the first book I’ve ever read about pirates, and now I want more.

I love that the main character is a fierce, stubborn, arrogant, and skilled woman. Alosa is so funny, I was laughing out loud a lot throughout this book. Her attitude made this story all the more enjoyable.

I loved Riden right from the very start. I really enjoyed the banter, among other things. *inserts winking emoji*

I really liked the storyline, and how it was written.

Some of the other characters really stood out to me too, like Enwen and Kearan.

I’m really happy with how it all played out and I’m so excited to read on. I can’t wait to see what happens next. I need book 2 now!

Below is just one of my favourite extracts, trust me, I have loads!

‘His philosophy is that if you have the power to do something, then you should do it.’

I'd also like to thank the lovely Danielle for talking me into reading this, it truly is a really enjoyable read that I'll happily reread a few times over.

A Real Swashbuckler

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 April 2017

This was a surprising read because the title makes it sound quite immature. This is not the case, however. It is in no way extreme for a young adult book though. Alosa is the 17 year old daughter of the king of pirates who intentionally gets herself kidnapped by a rival ship so that she can hunt for a map to an island of treasure. She is very practical, if not always smart, and she always manages to escape from her cage to walk around the ship at night. She is also hotheaded and this gets her noticed by the first mate of the ship, Riden. Riden is an interesting love interest, and all romance is subtle until they get to know each other. Alosa has to struggle to keep it a secret that she is intentionally there, and she also has her own surprising secret. I recommend this book for lovers of young adult pirate stories. I removed a star for a disappointing ending.

A must-read for pirate fans

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 September 2018

I love, love, loved this! This is the pirate book I’ve been looking for! It was brilliant from the first chapter.

Alosa is easily one of my favourite female leads, she’s fierce, cunning, clever - I could go on for days. Her witty thoughts kept the chapters fun and the story flowing, I just couldn’t help but fly through the pages.
I loved her rapport with Riden, as well as her interactions with the rest of the crew. She didn’t cower when they tried to threaten or intimidate her, she stood her ground and I loved that about her.

The storyline was imaginative and fun, and the only downside was that it ended a little abruptly, almost like the book had been split in half into a duology rather than written as two separate books, so I’ll be off buying the next one ASAP!

I’m intrigued to learn more of Alosa’s backstory and see her relationship with her father as well as learn more about her mother’s heritage. And of course I’m excited to see her female crew in action!
It’ll be a nice turn around to have her in charge and Riden aboard her ship instead!

Hugely recommended for pirate fans!

Amazing!

These books! I loved this series! I got these books because I saw them a lot on TikTok and was pleasantly surprised with what I read! The story is something I haven’t read before, it was awesome to see a strong female lead character who was badass, emotional and witty and didn’t need a man to see that. The front cover describes Alosa as "a female Jack Sparrow", and I would 100% agree with that statement, aside from the fact she is always sober and much more cunningly brilliant than he. This has a strong Pirates of the Caribbean feel as well, but it was a little more focused on the romance aspect as you would expect from a YA fantasy. Speaking of, I was surprised at how age appropriate this book is. It does have some violence but the romantic aspect was quite tame without losing any of the excitement.

The only thing I didn’t like about this book was; I felt like a lot of the big reveals were done very quickly without a lot on exploration into what it meant, it was like it was chucked at you and you had to accept it. I don’t know if it was me being a little tired while reading it, but it’s what I felt. While it was predictable at times, I did love all the various twists and turns included that were used to set up the sequel coming in 2018. Overall, the adventure, witty dialogue, and budding romance between Riden and Alosa are enough to make this a 5 star read on it's own
