The author has done a good research on pirates and ships. Whenever action is happening on the ship, relevant parts of the ship are mentioned, things like navigation, battle tactics, guns, crew positions and pirate customs are covered too.The magic in this novel so far seems very minimal, it's more of a guns and swords story (and swords are at a point where they are going out of fashion).The MC may seem like a typical tomboy, but she is a pretty complex character in my opinion. The two love interests are distinct and quite interesting in their own ways. The romance in this novel is not a straightforward venture. These three characters feel very differently about their relationships with each other.
