The Crimes of Rooker Flynn

The only crime of Rooker Flynn is that the book comes to an end. And what an ending...

The Crimes of Rooker Flynn is about, well, Rooker Flynn - a pirate through and through, with plenty of crimes to his name. However, to all fun comes an end, and he is forced to give up his freedom and the love of his life, the ship called the Venture Brigand - but he won't accept his captivity without a fight.

He is accompanied in his attempts to regain what has been lost by Jack Swift, an isekai'd teen from Chicago with quite the reputation in Flynn's world. Together, they are a team that has both smarts and strength, yet their alliance isn't always a given, their bond being tested through the many secrets they keep.

From the beginning until the end there are plenty of twists and turns, suspenseful and gruesome scenes, but it also managed to make me laugh out loud quite a few times, so it really has the best of both worlds! I loved the characters, especially Ransom and Patch, and the villains do a great job of making you absolutely detest them.

There is also a previous novel titled The Legend of Black Jack. Don't worry if you've not read that book first, because you'll still be able to understand this one fully. I haven't read it yet but will definitely pick it up to read between the release of the second and third books of this trilogy.

Can't wait to find out how Rooker Flynn's story continues!
