Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay out of trouble. But can he really be expected to stand by and watch while a bully picks on his scrawny best friend? Or not defend himself against his pre-algebra teacher when she turns into a monster and tries to kill him? Of course, no one believes Percy about the monster incident; he's not even sure he believes himself.

Ryker only has one goal in his life right now: Turn a certain adventuring guild into a flaming wreck while dancing merrily through the smoldering ruins. All for the chance to get back at a handful of people. It isn’t as if they didn’t deserve it either. They had driven him from his home. Chased him physically from the very guild house itself. Simply because he wasn’t as strong as they expected him to be. As strong as he’d expected himself to be. He’d returned the next day and left with something he’d hidden away and told no one about when he found it in one of his few Dungeon Dives.

It is 1780, and 17-year-old Alan Lewrie is a brash, rebellious young libertine. So much so that his callous father believes a bit of naval discipline will turn the boy around. Fresh aboard the tall-masted Ariadne, Midshipman Lewrie heads for the war-torn Americas, finding - rather unexpectedly - that he is a born sailor, equally at home with the randy pleasures of the port and the raging battles on the high seas. But in a hail of cannonballs comes a bawdy surprise.

The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long.

Publisher's Summary
Yes! The truth is she's secretly forced to pose as an American dancer behind enemy lines in Paris, where she entices a French general into revealing military secrets - all to save her dear friends. Then, in intrepid Jack Faber style, she dons male clothing and worms her way into a post as a galloper with the French army, ultimately leading a team of men to fight alongside the great Napoleon.
In this sixth installment of the "Bloody Jack" series, love and war collide as the irrepressible Jacky Faber sets off on a daring adventure she vowed she'd never take!

Our sailor now is on land
It takes some rather odd circumstances to get Jacky into close proximity with Napoleon himself. But the upshot is that the reader is forced to consider that war is not simple with good guys all on one side and glory as the reward.
Several characters remark that our heroine has 9 lives, it's probably more like 20, I've lost track of the many times she is at the point of dying when. . . something happens and she is saved! Ah well, that's the genre after all.
Kellgren continues to surpass all expectations. In this book, she has to indicate that Jacky is speaking French with an American accent, while continuing to narrate in her original Cockney. She also gets to do German and Russian accents for a change. Without her, I probably would never have picked up this series written for a younger audience and wouldn't have gone past one or two volumes. I only wish I had children the right age to appreciate these books.

Stunning & Engaging
I don't think I've enjoyed a story or reader yet that is as engaging and "In the Momemt" as L.A. Meyer's Jack series read by Katherine Kellgren. Once again I feel like I am there, beside Jack the whole way, rather than reading what will surely become another account of her adventurers.

A most remarkable narrator!
What made the experience of listening to My Bonny Light Horseman the most enjoyable?
Katherine Kellgren's portrayal of the characters and her ability to infuse the story with such enthusiastic life. Very few narrators I have listened to perform to her level.
What did you like best about this story?
The fantastical situations the lead character finds herself in and her realistic responses to them.
What does Katherine Kellgren bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I have a vivid imagination when I read a good book and often come close to forgetting I am just reading a story, but, listening to Katherine does makes me forget I am listening to a book being read.

Another Charming Romp from Bloody Jack
Love the series. It is written for young adults, and I am so far from being one, but the series continues to be utterly charming, with Katherine Kellgren embodying and personifying the impulsive, brave, lighthearted scamp, Jackie Favre. The author introduces little anachronisms for the delectation of a modern audience, such as Jackie's taking the sobriquet of "Jacqueline Bouvier" while in France and New Orleans.
Always satisfying and funny!

Wonderful narrator - but creepy elements
I am in awe of the narrator. I feel like I'm treated to a very special performace--and she absolutely makes the book.
Downside, I am an adult. I don't have kids, but I do wonder about the sanity of any author treating sexual violence, assault and rape in such a blase manner as this author does, especially in a book targeted for a young audience. Seems to be getting worse in each book. Be forewarned.

More Of The Same ...
If you've listened to the other "Bloody Jack" books, you've heard this one - more cosmic coincidences, more of our plucky heroine either talking, crying or cheating her way out of trouble. A more disturbing problem is that she shows more undesirable characteristics in each book. I quit on this one about halfway through. Sorry, Jackie - I just don't like you any more ...

Fantastic & so much fun. Highly Recommend
This is such a fun & wonderful series.
Just can’t recommend it enough! And the narration is FANTASTIC.
I am very sad that both the wonderful author L.A. Meyer & & the amazing narrator,, have both left this world much too soon, KK at the young age of 48. Just so sad that no more books with be written or narrated by these two very talented people. Hope you both know wherever you are now, that your wonderful works continue to bring joy to more & more people.

Poorest book in series so far
The story is getting a little repetitive with Jacky continuing to make bad decisions and then seeming surprised when those decisions lead to bad consequences. It seems the author is not interested in having any major character development. Performance by narrator is good, but logic behind the plot is non existent which makes it frustrating to listen to. Jacky is made a spy for British Intelligence, and she has dozens of opportunities to foil the enemy ( France ) but she does not, she becomes an officer in the French army, and even though she has disliked the French cause in the past, that doesn’t seem to matter now and she becomes emotionally attached to her squad of French soldiers and pretty much does nothing for the English cause and is the main reason the French triumph. Makes no sense. Then, when her handler finds out she practically betrayed them and aided France in every possible way, she is shocked that he is angry and wants to kill her. Um, duh..... Jacky, you were a spy that turned, you did nothing to hide this fact, and now you are a liability. Of course they want to kill you! Jacky can be so thick sometimes.

Katherine's accents are just amazing. Obviously all the bloody Jack story lines stretch credulity a bit but, they are all so fun and interesting that you are willing to overlook the unbelievable. I love Meyers use of real historical events and people in his stories.

9 Lives prevail again.
It took me a little while to start this book, while I love the series, the last book was not my favorite. Thankfully this book is better and I’m in love with Jacky again. She has some of the cleverest ways of getting out of trouble. It is just fun to watch. I look forward to the next book. Narrator is awesome as usual, I just learned she died which saddens me because she is so colorful and lively.
