This horror fantasy was an interesting adventure. The main character is hell-bent on revenge and has to deal with the consequences of her obsession. I thought the romance aspect would play a larger role, but it's more a throwaway than anything. I enjoyed the complexity of the characters and thought that the creature design was incredibly unique. I am not a pirate book girl but I really enjoyed this one.
