Rasim is no stranger to bad luck.
One half-strength foundling can\'t hope.
Storm, treachery, piracy, and outright war sail with them.
No one is more surprised than Rasim when he earns a place on the fleet\'s flagship, sent North for a daring mission.
Possessed of little magic but a sharp mind, his greatest talent seems to be finding trouble--or perhaps escaping it just in time.
Orphaned at birth, he holds his place in the Seamasters\' Guild by dint of quick thinking and sheer stubbornness.
