Under the Jolly Roger: Being an Account of the Further Nautical Adventures of Jacky Faber (Bloody Jack #3)
Yet another fun, fabulous read about the fiesty heroine, Jacky Faber. In this, the third installment of her adventures, Jacky has left behind a burning Boston (literally!) and is now back to a life at sea. First stop: England. Things don't work out very well for Jacky in England tho.. She is kicked out of her beloved Jaimy's house and then sees him with another woman and well, rather than wait for any kind of explanation (It is the hotheaded Jacky Faber we are talking about here) she runs away.
My favorite of the series so far! Jacky is the strong heroine that you want to be and read. Fun swashbuckling tale and Jacky's charm and adventures have made this one of my favorite series of all time.
This one was the best in the series in my opinion. It really set the course for the next few books. In this book, Jacky becomes a pirate. In all the books, I like Jacky as a pirate the best. Also, did anyone notice how Jaimy is always gone? in every book, there is a short encounter of some sort and then they are torn apart again. I fond that Jaimy really isn't a very strong character. There is almost no character development and he's just plain boring.Liam was awesome in this book. The growth of
Excellent as always, my only complaint (but not really a complaint) is that it felt as though it were three stories long instead of one. Sooooooo much happens in this book.But I will always love Jacky Faber and Katherine Kellgren's voice acting is fantastic. This series is one of my top picks for audiobooks.
This is my favorite by far in the series. There is tons of dramatic irony and tons of playful romance, which I love. Also this is the one where the characters are mostly at sea and all of the adventure deals with pirateing. It is a great read.
Still dont like the language or the crude content, but these are strangely addicting. Not that the language is any worse than whats in The Flash, and the content is probably fairly comparable to Guardians of the Galaxy, but that doesnt mean I have to like it. Still, I like the seafaring adventure, and theres something compelling about Jacky, even though shes very much not properly brought up. Wouldnt recommend the series without disclaimers, but Im enjoying them. And its much easier to read my

I love this series. Yes, Jacky Faber is a Mary Sue, but I just don't care. I have fun reading these books, and they are so well-researched that I actually learn things too. For example, I never knew why we had the expression "son of a gun" until I read it in this book. I looked it up after reading why in this book, and was amazed.Jacky is really a good-hearted girl, too, and that makes me love this series all the more. What would YOU do with your winnings as a pirate? Probably not what JackyYet another fun, fabulous read about the fiesty heroine, Jacky Faber.
