Nothing is more dangerous than a warrior enslaved. Upon the lawless Blood Sea, mariners survive by wits, cunning, and skill. Pirate captain Kevril Longbright is a survivor. With his own ship, a faithful crew, and an ambitious partner handing him fat merchant prizes, he is truly the scourge of the sea, free and beholden to none. Or is he? Accepting jobs from Jhavika Keshmir is far easier than scouring the sea for his own targets. But when Kevril captures a mystical truthsayer, Preel, he learns that the truth can be both a blessing and a curse. Preel reveals the foul enchantment behind Jhavika's uncanny ability to convince others to do her bidding. Far from being his own master, Kevril is a slave to Jhavika's every command. Enraged by her lies and manipulations, the pirate captain embarks upon a perilous quest for freedom. But enslavement can take many forms, and Kevril finds himself increasingly drawn to Preel and her mysterious talent. Who knew the truth could be so damning, so freeing, and so seductive...

"The Scourge of Captain Bloodbeard: A Pirate Adventure Adult Coloring Book".. this pirate coloring book for adults is not what you'd expect. No mandalas or repetitive patterns here. Within these pages, you will find 30 exciting pirate scenes that tell a story. Each coloring page is accompanied by a caption, thoughtfully placed on the opposite page (a popular request, as many enjoy mounting or framing their finished pages without text showing.) We've also provided an illustrated test page at the beginning of the book to try out your art materials - the paper is perfect for pencils and gel pens and other dry media like crayons. Margins are away from the edges of the page and binding so that you don't have to dig your art materials into the spine, which can be aggravating, making it difficult to color - this book is designed for your ease and comfort! Professional colorists will appreciate the combination of thick and thin lines, and the professional-quality (and often quite humorous) illustrations. Throw in some badly behaving buccaneers and it's easy to see why we're one of the best pirate coloring books available! Wayne and I have enjoyed creating this book and we think you'll enjoy it, too. Here's just a taste of the story, from the back cover.. Set Sail For Adventure.. Legend goes that there exists a mystical artifact that could bestow upon its owner the power of the goddess Eurybia, herself. Many have tried to find this artifact, "The Call of the Deep", to no avail. All aboard the infamous Rusty Cutlass, as Captain Bloodbeard and his pirate crew (and loyal cat Nightshade) set sail to find The Call. Fear not, as two unlikely heroes believe they may have found what Bloodbeard is looking for. But can they survive this tale? The sea can be quite unforgiving.
