I have read all four of the Scimitar Seas fantasy novels and enjoyed them thoroughly. Scimitar War brings the series to a satisfying conclusion after taking the reader on a journey filled with surprising twists and turns. Adventure on the high seas, pirates, cannibals, mages, merfolk, sprites and a chillingly wicked demon, this book has them all. Warning: Allot plenty of reading time because the book is almost impossible to put down. Jackson places not just his protagonist but all of his characters in grave peril and keeps the reader in constant suspense as to their fates. It's an exciting ride, a truly nail-biting experience.

I especially enjoy a book which not only tells a great story, which this does, and has vividly depicted characters whom I really care about, as this book does, but also lets me learn something new along the way. Chris Jackson is himself a mariner, and his intimate knowledge of boats and sailing provides his readers with the authentic feel of the sea and the intricacies of sailing.

I highly recommend this entire series to all lovers of fantasy and lovers of the sea and to anyone who just loves a great adventure story.
