16yo Tress has left her home of Diggen’s Point to rescue the Duke’s son 17yo Charlie from a forced trip to meet and marry a worthy woman of royalty. He’s actually been sent to the Sorceress to die. Tress disguises herself as an inspector to board a ship and when the ship is attacked she boards the winning ship, Crow’s Song. Tress has adventures involving curses, dragons, magic, and surprises in store. She also discovers her strengths and loyalties and how far she will go to take care of the people she cares about.
I enjoyed the humor throughout the book. The snippets of wisdom were fun. I like the unknowns of Tress’ adventures. The prose is charming and the world-building is imaginative. The book contains a variety of ethnicities, Tress is presumably white.
