Legend of the Pirate Queen

Piracy, Mayhem, and Majesty on the Seven Seas

By: Melissa Saari

Based in part on the real-life adventures of Sayyida al Hurra, Legend of the Pirate Queen is a historical fiction book involving piracy, mayhem, murder, sex, and women’s empowerment. Keela has a good life in Ireland, painting pictures and fishing. But in 1594, her village is raided by brutal slave traders. Keela’s daughter, Caitlin, is ripped from her and taken to the Canary Islands, where the traders’ evil leader, John Deas, takes her as his own daughter. And Keela is shipped to Haiti, where she begins her new life as a slave. Vowing to find her daughter no matter the cost, Keela eventually leads an uprising of slaves, who overtake the slave traders and commandeer a ship, becoming pirates. With Keela assuming a natural leadership role, her legend grows over the subsequent decades as she relentlessly pursues reunification with Caitlin and takes out scores of slave traders in the process. The more slaves Keela frees, the more power and influence she gains. But pirating is a treacherous game. Will Keela survive long enough to be reunited with her daughter and end the slave trade for good? Read and find out. WARNING: Legend of the Pirate Queen is a fictionalized account of life as a slave and pirate in the 1500s and 1600s. As such, this book necessarily contains language and scenarios related to murder, torture, and abuse (emotional, physical, and sexual) that might be triggering for some audiences. Reader discretion is advised.

Long Sleep

The Novel of Your Nightmares

By: Melissa Saari

During a near-death drowning experience, seven-year-old Ophelia Carter meets an angel who bestows on her the power to heal people from their ills, diseases, and nightmares. Ophelia’s parents immediately begin exploiting her gift by setting up a healing center, charging admission, and forcing their daughter to put her healing powers on full display. Ophelia enjoys healing people, but each healing takes a major physical and mental toll on her, and being in the limelight attracts unwanted attention. Ophelia begins to grow weary and to trust her parents less and less. One day, a visitor named David shows up at the healing center and sweeps a now college-age Ophelia off her feet, in part by convincing her that her parents are exploiting her. But what Ophelia doesn’t realize is that David suffers a psychosis that has put him in communication with an evil entity name Perkele. Using David to do his bidding, Perkele intends to cut Ophelia off from her parents and use her powers for evil instead of good. Will Ophelia realize her folly in time to prevent Perkele from doing irreversible harm to her and the entire world? Read and find out.

Contemporary Issues in Parenting

By: Melissa J. Kane

There is probably no responsibility in life more important, rewarding, frustrating and difficult as parenting. One's mistakes are reflected in another person yet one's positive influence can lead to the happiness of another person and perhaps many. There are guidebooks, home-made advice, magazines and movies about it. Yet few do it well it seems although many may wish to. And just how should it be done? Should music be played even before birth or special schools be sought out? How can values be taught by many who have none themselves? How should parents try to counter the environmental factors which play a role in their upbringing? Is each generation dumbing down and if so, what can be done about it. This book presents chapters which attack these issues and more in a scholarly format.
