Trashy, Derivative, And I liked it way more than it deserved
Imagine another remake of Pirates of the Caribbean, but with the budget and brains of Starship troopers (the movie). Also imagine that the shower scene lasts 20% of the movie and the sex scenes show penetration. If this sounds like a movie you would watch over and over, you might like this book.
This is mostly a pirate book, that has some sex and the captain keeps reminding you he's an orc because if he didn't keep reminding you, you really would forget.
This pirate book is based way more on pirate movies than any classical literature.
Yet, the pacing is good. the action is fun. the plot mostly makes sense, and the MC is likeable for reasons that defy understanding, and I just finished the book. I found this to be a lot more fun than I expected, but I was expecting garbage.
