Ocean without end
Local writer, Kelly Gardiner, has written a pirate trilogy - the Swashbuckler Trilogy - for upper primary school age children. The first book introduces the reader to 12 year old Lily Swann who is mistakenly kidnapped by pirates who are looking for a cabin boy. So begins the adventures as Lily initially struggles to survive in her new and dangerous environment but when the opportunity arises decides to find out what happened to her father who disappeared many years previously. Lots of action in this book - will have to look out for the sequels to find out what happens to Lily, or Cyg as she is known in her pirate world.
