Bloody Jack

I've been reading a YA book series by Louis A. Meyer. (Yes, some adults do read kids books. I work in a library. Excuse enough.) The "Bloody Jack Adventures" are about Mary "Jacky" Faber, a girl who disguised herself as a boy to go to sea (but got caught), got stuck at a prim girls school (but not for long), became a pirate(but not really, just officially), and got into all sorts of trouble in between (and always seems to get out of it just in time). I highly recommend the series. The official website isn't much, but it does give a release date for the next book, In the Belly of the Bloodhound.

Buy the whole series:

Bloody Jack: Being an Account of the Curious Adventures of Mary "Jacky" Faber, Ship's Boy

Curse of the Blue Tattoo : Being an Account of the Misadventures of Jacky Faber, Midshipman and Fine Lady

Under the Jolly Roger : Being an Account of the Further Nautical Adventures of Jacky Faber
