The Princess and the Pirate

Om The Princess and the Pirate

In the 16th century, the Portuguese were the dominant power in the triangle of India, Madagascar and East Africa. It was the 'Age of the Pirate': forays into India to impress men into service on pirate ships, raids on shipping in the Arabian Sea for booty... A romantic story of adventure, The Princess and the Pirate centres on Zahira, a young Indian girl taken hostage and ransomed by the handsome, brave pirate chief, Pedro Alvarari. Can she forget home and family to contemplate a future with the pirates? Will Pedro's lust for gold and drunken, violent life allow him to fall in love? Is the pirate life itself under threat by a desire for more order and stability? Written for young readers aged 15 and above or for the romance connoisseur, The Princess and the Pirate is beautifully illustrated with twelve plates.
