About this series
The irrepressible Jacky Faber, condemned for life to the English penal colony in Australia for crimes against the Crown, has once again wriggled out of the grasp of British authorities. Back on her flagship, the Lorelei Lee, she eagerly heads back to England in the company of friends and her beloved Jaimy Fletcher.
But when the voyage is waylaid by pirates, storms, and her own impetuous nature, Jacky is cast into a world of danger that extends from the South China Sea to the equally treacherous waters of London politics. With the help of her loyal friends, Jacky meets her enemies head on in this tale of love, courage, and redemption.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This series does not suffer at all from the YA (Young Adult) status. The action is dynamic and blossoms to life as read by a highly entertaining and talented narrator. She shifts deftly between the incidental characters, giving the main character range depth and memorable cheek.
The female reader highlights the nuanced gendered fluidity often present in the series. Snatches of song highlight this reader’s superlative and first rate theatrical performance.
