The abyss surrounds us series6/12/2023 I was convinced our future could look like this, with condensed political nations in the wake of rising sea levels, flooding destroying whole portions of continents. The world of Reckoners pulled me in from the first scene. She sense of herself and where she belongs, even if it means turning her back on everything she knows. She transforms into a competent, brave, skilled commander of a Reckoner, and a clever and savvy fighter. By the end, she’s surviving and thriving in a completely different world. At the start of the story, she’s a teen just about to go on her first mission for which she’s been trained on all her life. Spoilers ahead! I’ll try not to give too much away, but it’s hard to get to the heart of this book without some spoilers.Ĭassandra Leung goes through an incredible journey. This sea adventure ride is full of twists and turns and they start right away. The fights hurt, the romance hurts, and it’s all worth it. This is fantastic sea adventure with a queer lady romance that doesn’t pull it’s punches. Honestly, I think most books could benefit from a good dose of lady pirates. It has pirates, sea monsters, queer lady romance, lady villains, pirate queen moms, an Asian-American lead character – it’s packed with all the things you’ve been wanting in your YA. In a future where pirates rule the open seas, the fleets the shore are kept at bay by genetically engineered giant sea creatures bonded to their ships and guided by their trainers.
