The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi

Amina al-Sirafi is a retired pirate, living quietly at home with her mother and daughter when she is pulled back into her old life. While embarking on a new quest, pieces of her past keep cropping up and intertwining with her adventure. There are battles! There is romance! There is magic! Set in the 12th century in the Indian Ocean, this was a fun backdrop for a fantasy novel. It is extremely well-written and very fun to read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to planned future novels!

This was another great reminder of why I love getting recommendations from friends. Not sure I would have ever found this on my own, and I'm already considering this as a gift for K.
