**** "Pirate Women: The Princesses, Prostitutes, and Privateers Who Ruled the Seven Seas" by Laura Sook Duncombe has received a mixed but notable reception. The book is celebrated for its engaging writing style and the author's ability to make complex historical information accessible to a broad audience. Readers have praised Duncombe for her knowledge and her effective use of personal commentary, which adds a human touch to the narrative. The chronological organization of the material facilitates easy digestion of the historical context and the figures discussed. However, several readers have raised concerns regarding the author’s perceived bias and her frequent insistence on feminist perspectives. Some have found these elements detracted from the historical narratives, claiming that the portrayal of male figures and contexts was overly negative. This focus has been described as a "venom-infused feminism" which some readers found difficult to reconcile with the historical content. Additionally, there are comments regarding the book's lack of depth in character exploration, with certain readers expressing disappointment that it did not delve deeper into the lives and motivations of the female pirates discussed. Those who approached the book expecting a narrative rich in storytelling and character arcs, akin to historical fiction, were often left unsatisfied. In contrast, readers familiar with non-fiction praised the accuracy of the research and appreciated the author's honesty about what can and cannot be substantiated. Overall, the book is well-suited for readers who are interested in history and the often overlooked contributions of women in piracy, but may not satisfy those looking for a deeper fictional narrative. **
