There are not enough verbs to describe the amount of adventure and excitement in one of MaryLu Tyndall’s swashbuckling pirate tales.
The SACRIFICE, the latest installment in the Legacy of the King’s Ring series, follows the heart of Lady Alexandra Ashcombe. A woman of means but was not always the case. However, with the ability to save the life of the one her heart has never forgotten, she intends to see to the release of Captain Amos Carlton, a boy from her youth. Now a man-and a notorious pirate-her goal in purchasing his indenture is to not only free him from the hangman’s noose, but to bring Amos to the very throne of God and show him true freedom.
Though Amos feels a connection to Alexandra from their youth, he will not be persuaded to give up his ultimate goal . . . finding Solomon’s ring. The mystery and legend surrounding the ring-that is told to be so powerful even the winds and the seas obey him who holds it-is what Amos seeks. And he will stop at nothing in order to find it and harness its power. However, as his fascination grows regarding Alexandra, he finds himself torn between his quest and his heart.
Once again, Ms. Tyndall pens a grand adventure not only for her characters but for her readers as well. The development of characters and her ability to set a scene so vividly is what sets her apart as a storyteller. To weave together the exploits of pirating yet keep the foundation of the story about redemption and that no soul is beyond saving is masterful. Even though the reader knows the crux of the story is that hearts would turn to Christ, the adventure to find out exactly how that will happen is absolutely worth the ride.
Do not miss out on this latest adventure from MaryLu Tyndall. However, once you board the SACRIFICE, be prepared for a voyage filled with heart-stopping action that will have you holding your breath and holding on to the rail as Captain Carlton’s ship plunges through the seas of adventure.
I received an advance copy of THE SACRIFICE for review purposes. All opinions are my own.
