Review of The Reckoning

Title:  The Reckoning

Author: Marylu Tyndall

Series: Legacy of the King's Pirates

 

Chapters: 32

Pages: 330

Genre: Christian Historical fiction, Christian Historical Romance Pirates

Rating: 5 stars

The Reckoning is the fifth book in The Legacy of the Kings Pirate series by Marylu Tyndall.  Morgan Shaw is a girl in the 21st century that somehow finds herself on a pirate ship in the Caribbean. Rowan Dutton believes that he has to be pirate in order to make up for what he put his sister through.  As a modern girl Morgan's not making it easy on Rowan.

It's to believe that two people born basically three hundred years apart would ever find common ground. But the banter between Morgan and Rowan is one of the things that make the story.

I love pirate novels and time travel. So I was thrilled when Marylu Tyndall my favorite author of pirate story had written a time traveling pirate novel.  But not only was that it part of my favorite series of hers.  I enjoyed this novel it's my favorite book of The Legacy of the Kings Pirate series. While I can't pick a favorite pirate hero of Marylu's Morgan is my favorite heroine.
