From Two-Time Bram Stoker Award Finalist, Fran Friel:
“Witches and Magic and Pirates, Oh My!”
What magic has the Widow, Maire Pennycock, bestowed upon her only son, Young Will, to survive the high seas adventures and the wicked Pirates of the Atlantic? Can he embrace his true heritage before it's too late?
Praise for Fran Friel and The Sea Orphan:
“The Sea Orphan” is a marvelous cross-genre blend of pirates and witchcraft all wrapped up in a distinctive period piece blanket. It’s at once a story of despair and the occult, of hope and adventure, and walking the wobbly gangplank of life. Impressive in its authenticity and boldness in not shying away from the decidedly nefarious intentions of ship’s mate Duncan Rutt. 'The Sea Orphan' is an enthralling read."
-Vince Liaguno - Bram Stoker Award-Winning Editor
"Fran Friel...she entertains, she instills honest emotion...and she leaves the reader with more than a little food for thought. We emerge richer for the experience, perhaps even with our world-view slightly altered. What are we witnessing? The beginning of a long and grand writing career."
