OLDER FICTION
Meyer, Kai

Pirate Emperor

(4) YA Wave Walkers series. Translated by Elizabeth D. Crawford. This second installment reconnects with Jolly, the water-walking "polliwog" whose ancient powers now extend below the water's surface. With her new ability comes the responsibility of saving humanity from the terrifying Maelstrom--a challenge Jolly isn't necessarily ready to accept. Though the prose could be tighter, the story's fantastical elements and original characters make the book imaginative and entertaining.
