Princeless, Vol. 3: The Pirate Princess by Jeremy Whitley

Adrienne has been on the run and working to save her sisters, but when she finds another princess locked away in a tower, she decides to spring her! But Raven Xingtao, the daughter of the Pirate King, is more of a handful than Adrienne could have ever expected. Before she knows it, Adrienne is off on a whirlwind adventure to complete Raven's quest for revenge!

4.5/5

Loved this! Just took half a star because some ableist language. But overall this was great. :)

This volume is our introduction to Raven, daughter of the Pirate King and identity of The Black Arrow. Raven is our rogue character, chaotic good in the alignment schemes. Also really great outfits. I would love to cosplay either of her outfits.

The story is simple (we're on a classic hero's quest here with Adrienne gathering her party of unlikely allies), but still enjoyable. Whitley's commitment to providing quality entertainment with a diverse cast, a positive message, and a serious amount of action and adventure remains clear. This particular volume is somewhat divorced from the main storyline and can be appreciated without having read the other books. Highly recommended for anyone looking to inspire a young adventurer.

oh my godddd I love ittttt, so fun! The art especially popped on this one, and I love Raven so much.

Also just gonna mention that Raven is a queer lady pirate...if that is of interest to any of you.
