Horn Book Review

This third series entry alternates between Grace, the mortal passenger on the deadly vampirate ship, and her twin, Connor, a young pirate disturbed by violence. Otherwise their narratives are intertwined with vampire and pirate lore that contextualizes characters' struggles to chart the future. The book is gripping throughout, but the relatively schmaltzy conclusion leaves much for the next installment to address. (c) Copyright 2010.
