Book Description
Barnacle Garrick is bold and saucy and selfish. And for a pirate captain, that’s good, very good. And his crew are all scurvy sea dogs—selfish down to the last fleabitten scuttle-butt. And that’s good too. But Augusta Garrick is shy, polite, and selfless. For a pirate, that’s bad, very bad. Despite her father’s horrible example, the sea pup can’t stop helping out. It just might take one terrible storm, a ripped sail, a missing peg leg and a panicked crew before Augusta can prove that being selfless is a bold and saucy move after all. And that’s good, very good indeed. A rollicking tale peppered with pirate talk, Kari-Lynn Winters’ Bad Pirate is a story about being true to yourself, even if it means you must go against the pack. Dean Griffiths’ artwork glows with rich colours, fine detail and spot-on doggie characters. A scurvy delight. For landlubbers, the endpaper design includes a glossary of pirate and sailing terms.

Postmodern Pirates
Author: Susanne Zhanial
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004416099
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Postmodern Pirates offers a comprehensive analysis of Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean series and the pirate motif through the lens of postmodern theories. Susanne Zhanial shows how the postmodern elements determine the movies’ aesthetics, narratives, and character portrayals, but also places the movies within Hollywood’s contemporary blockbuster machinery. The book then offers a diachronic analysis of the pirate motif in British literature and Hollywood movies. It aims to explain our ongoing fascination with the maritime outlaw, focuses on how a text’s cultural background influences the pirate’s portrayal, and pays special attention to the aspect of gender. Through the intertextual references in Pirates of the Caribbean, the motif’s development is always tied to Disney’s postmodern movie series.

Book Description
She wanted a simple life, and got werewolves instead. Meet Whoopsie, a somewhat sheltered young woman whose life was filled with love, laughter, and joy. She recently finished her university degree, got a job at the veterinarian’s office in her hometown, and moved into a comfy lakeside home with her best friend. Life was good. Simple. But that all changed on her twenty-fifth birthday. Her body was changing, and not in a normal, human way. Her hair and eyes had a mind of their own, and she was attracting a lot of attention from people with a strange glow to their eyes. She thought she was losing her mind, until her parents told her the truth about her family and the world around her. Shapeshifters were real, and now that she was twenty-five, the beasts were going to be coming for her. And they did… _____________ The Whoopsie Daisy series is a medium-burn paranormal romance / urban fantasy series where the main character may decide to pick more than one mate from a selection of love interests (reverse harem). It features a quirky main character who grows into her strength while surrounding herself with all sorts of shapeshifting creatures (werewolves, vampires, cat shifters, and more). ⚠️ This is not a series for children (contains content intended for mature audiences including coarse language, violence, and steamy scenes). Content notes are available on the copyright page and the authors website. This is a rewritten edition of the previously published book “Whoopsie Daisy” by C. Sunrise. ⚠️ _____________ C. Sunrise is a Canadian author who spends too much time in the great Canadian outdoors and takes way too many pictures of her dogs (and the beautiful scenery, of course). She hasn't spotted a werewolf, bear shifter, or sasquatch... yet. Until then, she'll keep adventuring and writing fictional stories about fantastical creatures. Keywords: paranormal romance, shifter romance, shape shifter romance, shape shifters, werewolf, reverse harem romance, why choose romance, strong female lead, alpha werewolf, paranormal suspense, paranormal thriller.
