Pirates of the Dawn: A Young Adult Fantasy Adventure

A princess who longs for adventure. A pirate who yearns for a respectable life. Their journey to rescue a magic ship while discovering that real treasure is found in hope, faith, and inner peace.

Princess Elia is fascinated to meet Privateer Jack, but she soon discovers that there's far more to this charming stranger than he claims. His real name is James, and he's not really the captain of one of her father's ships, but of the magical Sun Catcher, the most notorious pirate ship in the waters of the Melee?n Archipelago. He longs for the quiet, respectable life of a gentleman as much as she longs for a life of freedom and exploration outside the palace walls.

Their unexpected friendship soon leads to the kind of adventure Elia has only ever read of in storybooks. Can they recapture James' stolen ship, the Moon Vessel, and rescue Elia's fianc?e, Nicolai, while unraveling the dark secrets of their past? And can Elia show James that it's not through material wealth that true peace is found, but through inner peace of the heart and soul?

The Amielian Legends is a collection of stand-alone young adult books, all set in the same fantastic universe, that can be read in any order. Read Pirates of the Dawn (formerly published as The Pirates of Melee?n) today to discover new worlds filled with adventure, diverse characters, and whimsical magic.
