Modern pirate stories seem to be few and far nowadays, and in the general public only a few seem to be recalled. However Till I Bleed No More may prove to be the refreshing take that can change this, and with its morally complex protagonist and themes, this exhilarating tale just may do that. With the inclusion of female pirates and a diverse range of characters, this author’s tale is appealing to all manners of reader’s. Being a pirate novel there are mentions of slavery, and being a pirate novel it is also very violent.
Casper’s story is one that many of us can relate too, it is of struggle, the struggle to belong, and to be free. It is also a mirror into what we do with the suffering that we endure, and the feelings that come with it. Will we stay the course? will we give in or give up? or see how far our heart will take us? it is a vexing thing for sure.
However opposing Casper lies an equally compelling force, a pirate hunter who has clawed their way through sacrifice and hurt to get to where they are in the beginning of this tale. Commodore Weiss provides Casper with an interesting opposition that could be understood in normal circumstances; but for Casper, this cannot stand.
Revenge and survival roar inside Casper’s mind, whereas peace and level-headedness reign in the Commodore’s, along with a determination to rival Casper’s own.
Age and youth clash in this story, along with the age long battle between choice and control.
