The Amielian Legends #7
The Pirates of Meleeon
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 Meleeón 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 fiancée, 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 The Pirates of Meleeón today to discover new worlds filled with adventure, diverse characters, and whimsical magic.

About the author
Christine E. Schulze
65 books409 followersHullo there, dear reader! Christine E. Schulze here, author of YA fantasy, as well as a few kids’ books about special needs. I’ve been living in castles, exploring magical worlds, and creating fantastical romances and adventures since I was too young to even write of such stories. My collection of YA and children's fantasy books, The Amielian Legacy, is comprised of series and stand-alone books that can all be read separately but also weave together to create a single, amazing fantasy.
One of my main aspirations for The Amielian Legacy is to create grand fantasy adventures with characters that connect with readers from diverse backgrounds. My current focus is to include racially diverse characters, as well as those with disabilities. The latter is inspired by my day job working with adults who have autism and other developmental disabilities at Trinity Services in Southern Illinois.
I draw much of my inspiration from favorite authors like Tolkien and Diana Wynne Jones, favorite games like The Legend of Zelda, and especially from the people in my life. Some of my exciting ventures include the publication of my award-winning Bloodmaiden, as well as The Gailean Quartet, my first series with Words Matter Publishing. My books for younger readers include In the Land of Giants and The Amazing Captain K.
I love connecting with new raeders! Come find me on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, or at my author website: http://authorchristineschulze.com
On that note, God bless, happy reading, and may you be truly inspired! I’ll see you in my next book.

The content of this story is just exceptional, the author has such a way of subtle messages of self growth and Christian influence within her story that ties it all together and really brings a sense of excitement to the reader as it brings the characters together even if they are from two different worlds, one a pirate finding a simple life and a princess trying to find adventure to escape the boring, cushy life that she has known. It is different from any book that I have read from this author in terms of content, it is not quite Blood Maiden nor is it the moving story of acceptance that is Puca, but it is a story all its own which is just as riveting as any of the other stories that the wonderful author has created, the cover of the story also helps give a sort of hint about the content of the story and how the two worlds are about to go head to head then merge together. It is also a story of faith and finding a light of hope even in the darkest times. The best part about Miss Schulze's stories is that 25% of her proceeds go to a foundation very close to her heart ALFA, which is a charity that helps fund programs for adults with disabilities.
