Do you want a book dominated by girl pirates? If so, this book is for you.

Caledonia is Captain of the ship Mors Navis who commands her all girl pirates crew. Caledonia and her first mate, Pisces have sailed the wide ocean for the last 4 years slowly harboring more and more girls on their ship. If not for the sanctuary these girls have found on the Mors Navis, they would have been taken by the evil tyrant Aric Athair.

Aric Athair steals kids from their family's, gets them addicted to Silt, and forces them to do his bidding.

This book was a fun trip with a very empowering mostly female cast of characters. While extremely likable, my only wish is that the characters were a bit more fleshed out. The text had some depth to it that captured a deeper meaning to the character's thought processes, but it seemed a bit surface heavy in most parts.

I liked the characters, but it didn't move me to feel deeply for them.

The overall storyline was a fun concept and I do intend to continue with the series when the next book in this trilogy comes out.

Seafire Natalie C Parker Books Reviews

I really enjoyed the writing style! I could just picture everything in my head! Enjoyed the characters, looking forward to the next in the series!!
Nice premise but got repetitive.
This book was just plain fun! I really loved it.
This is easily the best book I've read all year. You'll fall in love with every character, and don't worry about getting stuck anywhere, because the action never stops for more than a page. Imagine if Davy Jones starred in Mad Max Fury Road. Now make Davy a 19 year old girl, and give her a crew of badass sisters. Congratulations, now you have Seafire. Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo's Six Of Crows duology or any other YA fantasy with lots of well-developed dynamic characters to make up the core cast.
An inspiring and adventurous story. The consequences of trust and betrayal, love and hate, life and death. Will trust and love and life be only rewarded in betrayal, hate and death? Is it worth the possibility of sacrificing everything for family? The inner struggles the characters face are relatable in a way you rarely see so well written. Falling immediately in love with these characters is as simple as falling into bed. More of the story could not come soon enough!
Unfortunately, it's a DNF @59%.

I loved the idea of the book and even the plot itself, but the execution was a fail to me because I didn't connect with the characters. They annoyed me, to be honest, and the story dragged.

Not for me but maybe for others. Pretty cover. 2 stars, my standard DNF rating.
Natalie C. Parker delivers an action-packed, exhilarating opener to her new series with Seafire. This female-focused novel packs a punch with non-stop action and an ensemble that is irresistible. Caledonia Styx lost her entire family four years ago when a ship controlled by the tyrannical Aric Athair attacked theirs. Now Caledonia, along with Pisces, the only other survivor of the Ghost, have forged a new kind of family for themselves. Sailing the Mors Navis, the all-female crew of 53 have made it their mission to thwart Athair every chance they get. Caledonia dreams of the day when she can finally avenge her family and take him down for good. When Caledonia and her crew come face to face with a Bullet, one of Athair’s soldiers, looking to get out from under his thumb, she must decide if trusting him is worth the risk.

The highlight of Seafire is of course Caledonia and her female crew. They’re fierce, brave and tenacious. I loved how well they all work together and that no one outshines another. They each have their individual strengths and as long as they are dedicated to doing their job, they work like a well-oiled machine. Parker does a fine job of flushing out several of her minor characters. Hime was a particularly fascinating character. The crew of the Mors Navis rescued her from Aric Athair and knows the lengths the tyrant has gone to to keep control of his soldiers, drugging them into submission. Most of the crew are very protective of Hime, but I loved how much fight was in her. Caledonia often regards Hime as either a liability, because of her former addiction to Silt, Aric Athair’s drug of choice, or inexpendable, because she functions as a medic on the ship. Hime, however, wants a chance to fight and as the story progresses, it becomes clear how much the crew needs her. I was also drawn to Pisces, who functions as a foil to Caledonia for much of the novel. Empathy and mercy come much easier to her than her captain. As first mate, it’s Pisces’s job to have Caledonia’s back, but also to know when her authority needs to be challenged. I loved that Pisces has a very different way of looking at the world as her perspective is essential for everyone looking to take down Athair and usher in a new kind of world.

Seafire is as much about its protagonist’s strengths as it is about her weaknesses. Caledonia was forced to grow up at a young age, not only because of the world she grew up in, but because of who she chose to become when her family was murdered. She has built a different kind of family for herself with her crew and most of her decisions are based on keeping them safe. However, Caledonia is not used to being vulnerable and tends to see the world in black and white. Her uncompromising views and hard shell have kept her and her crew alive, but has also made it difficult for her to get out of her own way. Caledonia’s own show of mercy led to her family’s demise and so she has vowed to never show mercy to a Bullet again. She’s spent so much time feeding her hatred of Aric Athair and his Bullets that she’s forgotten that at one point these soldiers were victims. Athair has built his army by demanding the people he rules over sacrifice their sons and daughters to his cause. I questioned many of Caledonia’s choices, but they were all true to her character and they never made me question her resolve.

Though labeled a fantasy, Natalie C. Parker’s Seafire reads more like a dystopian/post-apocalyptic novel. There are hints of what the world used to be and technology that only makes sense to a setting where civilization had once flourished. I loved exploring this world and look forward to learning more. Seafire is an easy novel to fall in love with and is refreshingly driven by a strong sense of family, both the one the characters are born into and the one they built for themselves.
