A pirate queen's Odyssey, penned by Greek fantasy author Alethea Kontis!
Thursday’s child has far to go… Pirate Queen Thursday Woodcutter (aka “Captain Cutter”) and her infamous brother Jack left Arilland after their little sister’s magical ocean fiasco to reunite with the crew of the Sea Hag. But what they find on the way is grim: the Troll King is on a rampage, the Dragon of the North is terrorizing the Permafrost, and the Pirate King has disappeared.
Determined to find her husband, Thursday travels the world on an enchanted ship crafted by her father and brother. Tracking down the Pirate King presents Thursday with one giant hurdle after another. And when faced with a choice—saving the world or saving the person she loves—Thursday realizes that it’s not really a choice at all.
Thieftess is heavily influenced by the fairy tales “The Story of the Seven Simons,” “The Flying Ship,” and “East of the Sun, West of the Moon.” Thursday’s adventures on the high seas are chock full of unlikely friendships, found family, and, of course, true love.
