I was thrilled to see the sequel to The Ship of Shadows had been released so I was extremely eager to join this blog tour. The first book was one of my favourite reads in 2020.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a magical adventure, step aboard the Ship of Shadows. The story continues to follow Aleja\u2019s journey on board the ship with the familiar cast from the previous novel. There are a few new additions to the cast of characters in this story and they really added to it.<\/p>\n

This book has everything you can hope for in a children\u2019s pirate adventure. A tale full of charm, danger, adventure, mystery and friendship. The writing style is gorgeous and effortless. Kuzniar transports you the many places the crew visits with rich, beautiful description that brings her world to life.<\/p>\n

A fantastic sequel that will have you clinging on to every word. I cannot wait to find out what happens next in this series!<\/p>\n
