CIP info Lady Grace Cavendish, Elizabeth I youngest maid finds herself in the midst of a battle at sea while posing as a boy aboard the ship of Francis Drake, where she and Masou stowed away to find and save Lady Sarah.

I thought the first book was good and I wasn’t expecting much more from this one. But it was sooooo much better. I has a battle at sea, Lady Grace acts like a pageboy to save Lady Sarah, whom she really doesn’t like. I like this series. It teaches history and the culture of the time period. And the strong female character is great. Lady Grace cuts off her hair and puts her life in danger to save Lady Sarah. Pirates, captains, and a ship battle where Lady Grace shoots flaming arrows and helps take the Spanish ship. In the end Lady Grace/Gregory is able to get back to Court with Lady Sarah without anyone knowing they were gone, and thus sparing the honor of Lady Sarah. I can’t wait to be a real librarian and recommend this series to another reader.
