This is the first book in The Blood Of The Pirate series. I really enjoyed this story. It is a mixture of Pirates of the Carribean and Indiana Jones. It’s an action packed adventure from the first page. I can’t wait to see how to books unfold.
When Evie Waters has a dream to sail the seas and find where the map her parents left her leads she doesn’t expect to be kidnapped by pirates. Add to this the fact that the journey isn’t plan sailing, with mysteries and curses around every corner can they find what x is hiding. Is it riches or is it something more sinister and magical.
With the queen’s navy on their tale to retrieve the item before Evie and the pirates reach it it becomes a race against time.

This is an YA adventure story. I would put this from about 5th or 6th level reading and older. I cannot wait to see where Mina Chara is going to follow up this masterfully crafted story. The plot is full of action and adventure. The characters are fully developed and enjoyable to read. In this action story there are pirates and creatures and their action and adventure stories. Every page I turned the page just made me turn the pages faster and faster. The ship Easy Money is on an adventure to find The Ocean’s Light. This light is to have incalculable power. It is easy to see why Captain Hammer wants the light for himself. Evie and the crew of Easy Money are trying to get to The Ocean’s Light first. Will Easy Money get to treasure first or will Captain Hammer and his crew get it first? I highly recommend this book. Batten Down The Hatches and enjoy the adventure.

The Ocean’s Light is the first book in Mina Chara’s new Blood of the Pirate series where fantasy meets folklore. Mina’s stories are always fun and full of adventure and if you like Pirates of the Caribbean, Indiana Jones or even the Library you are gonna love this new series. The action and adventure will have you thinking like and hearing yourself speaking in your mind like a pirate. Yeah, yeah, I know crazy town, hubby can verify that. Any who, it was easy to become lost and immersed in the story as it was so entertaining. The one thing that let it down was that there are some editing issues that stopped the natural flow. Besides that, I cannot wait for the next book.

The Ocean’s Light is the first book in the Blood of the Pirate series by Mina Chara. I love Ms. Chara’s Hero High series, so I was quite excited to find she had released a new book and discover that it’s also the start of a swashbuckling new series. She had me on the first page- reading The Legend of the Light introduction to the story was all I needed to see to know that I was going to love this story. And I did. This is Indiana Jones meets Pirates of the Caribbean- a wonderfully original swashbuckling pirate adventure- a treasure hunt full of action, intrigue, mystery, danger, drama, curses, and so much more. I was glued to the pages, not wanting to put the book down until I had read every last word. I am hooked on this book/series- and really can’t wait to get my hands on the next book. I am so happy that this story was so incredibly good, as there were a few editing issues (Amazon Au verified purchase Kindle copy) which pulled me out of the story and disrupted the flow. Simple things that should have been picked up in the editing/proof reading/Beta reading phase- and had they been, this book would have been all the better for it. Issues such as getting characters mixed up, referring to an MC’s as he, when they are she- or she, when they are he. Starting off in a MC’s character perspective (Slim) and then calling her Bulk (another MC). Sentences that don’t quite make sense, because of the use of wrong words, and simple typos like using ‘in’, instead of ‘at’. So, I am so very relieved that the story was so captivating, because becoming immersed in all the action and adventure did help to distract me from the editing issues- to the point where they didn’t detract (too much) from my overall enjoyment of the story. I am invested in this series now, as it has captured my imagination and got me thinking- my mind is pondering all the various scenarios of where we can go from here. I can’t wait! Bring on Book #2! Happy reading!
