About the book:
Polly Pringle, stuck in a prim and proper finishing school, yearns for adventure and romance, much like in the tales she grew up with about Meg Malloy, the pirate queen.
When she is kidnapped by the Meg Malloy’s crew of pirates, she discovers that her dead mother was none other than the pirate queen herself!
Now Polly must follow the footsteps of her sea-faring mother to recover her mother’s treasure map, stolen by a rival pirate king determined to keep Meg Malloy’s pirate treasure for himself.
Naifeh’s art is close enough to the typical manga style, but still retains his own unique look that brings his characters to life. Polly is a strong character, who grows from being a quiet, prim and proper young lady to a pirate queen.
