The Logbooks of Admiral Jake

Book excerpt: Admiral Jake begins in a forest of frenzied flight. Matey, her family, and others from their pioneer settlement must do all they can to flee the marauding pirates, but things do not go well. After a horrific sequence of events, 17-year old Matey and her 12-year old brother, Buck, must find their way back to safety and somehow find a way to move on. But the difficulties do not cease, nor is the direction easy to discern, nor are the souls they encounter in all ways familiar. Whether flyers or dwarfs, pirates or double-realm rovers, storytellers or others, all are in various places of conflict and confusion, converging in and out of troubles and trials. Matey must find out what side she is really on, to what end must she aim, is triumph even possible, and does it really make any difference at all?
