Every day I take my characters further into the epic adventure. Come along with me and plunge into the intricate web featuring a fantasy-filled pirating world of peril and intrigue.

The Dark Eve: A New Recruit by T.K. Thompson tells the story of Acantha, the Pirate Queen, and her quest to save her sister from the Wraith King. She needs to find a pendant, but not just any – this is a soul-controlling pendent. Mr. Basile is the New Recruit on board The Dark Eve, the pirate ship captained by Acantha. But he’s about to find out that she is not a woman to be trifled with, and any time he asks questions about her, he is fobbed off; this just deepens his interest and he decides to dig into her life. If Acantha finds out, his life will be in peril but dig he does. Does Acantha find out? What will Mr. Basile find out about her and will he escape with his life? Can Acantha save her sister and stop the Wraith King from taking over?

The Dark Eve: A New Recruit by T.K. Thompson is the first in a series of tales about the Pirate Queen Acantha and it was a captivating story to say the least. It started off well and it just got better as T.K. Thompson demonstrated her command of the written language perfectly. Descriptive writing pulls you into the story, offering an action-packed tale that takes you on a journey you won't forget. You won’t see the ending coming and you will want to read the next book straight away! The characters have been well developed, and you get to know them, not just through what they do in the present but in glimpses into the past that we are offered, glimpses that provide background and backbone to the story. This is one story where you won't be able to guess what’s coming and it will keep you on the edge of your seat ... waiting.
