Publisher's summary

Beware the waters. The dangerous deep brings ruin to all.

Emme has spent her life avoiding anything to do with pirates. But the fates are cruel, and now a hidden sickness leads her to partner with pirates for the one thing that can save her - a cure on an island none are certain exists.

The pirate captain’s secrets are darker than the deep and threaten to kill them all. His obligations are tinged with betrayal, for his oathbind must be fulfilled. To ignore it is to invite peril of unimaginable destruction.

As the adventure unfolds, the sea takes more than she expects and the sea gives more than he wants.

Brilliant Pirate Adventure!

Where do I begin with this book. It was a wonderfully crafted high seas tale, rich with complex characters and their questionable actions. There are monsters, lore, magic, and treasure abound. It is quite violent at times, as is expected in this type of story. The romance was intricately woven through the narrative, and the pacing was superb! And the twists at the end will leave you itching for book 2!

Was a fun story but….

I like the story, but the narrator used pretty much the same voice for every one so it made it hard at first to tell who was speaking. Not sure I’ll get the next one but at least it was a clean story and no cursing so I don’t mind sharing it with m kids.

the story was pretty good, but the reading was phenomenal. I think this might be the best reading I've heard.

Great YA read!

There is mystery, adventure, twist & turns, and a little romance! The book is narrated beautifully. I had a hard time turning it off until I finished it. Off to the next adventure in the trilogy!

My favorite new narrator!

Ellen is so diverse and talented in the many different ways she able to bring different characters to life. Her latest Victoria McCombs book just gives her the new challenge to take her to the next level. Can't wait to listen to book two!

Intriguing story, great reader

Arn and Emme are unlike any two normal characters in a book. They each hold secrets and when they come to light, trouble descends on the salty waters. Intriguing and fast paced, there’s not a dull moment in Oathbound.
