Summary

With no magic, no brawn, and no pirate crew, Zala seeks to steal back the one treasure that matters to her most: Her husband.

To succeed she needs a ship - and not just any ship, but the latest, secret invention by the Vaaji Empire. An airship.

Zala will have to use her wits to overcome scoundrels and nobles alike on her journey through the clouds.

But if she's smart enough, she may just have what it takes to save her husband - and go down in history as the first sky pirate.

Delve into a pirate fantasy inspired by the West Indies, The Swahili Coast, and Arabia, where Zala will encounter ruthless raiders, arrogant aristocrats, and imperial secrets.

Awesome introduction and expansion of Esowon

Very interesting plot and world building, Antoine has done alot of research to make this vibrant world of Esowon. My favourite part of his work is the unique African inspired magic system. Antoine's skill as an author continues to grow after his first book the Kishi. The story takes place in the same world as his first book, it was good seeing references to the lore and characters mentioned in the Kishi. but, despite this the story stands on its own two feet, you don't need to read the Kishi to understand By Sea & Sky. I love the references made to African and Carribean mythologies and cultures again he did his research. The only major cons I have would be in relation to where the story began and the characters. I would have preferred the story to have began slightly before the events of the opening chapters and, also more character development and exploration to make them stand out and alot more relatable. I just hope the sequels focus on that area a little more. Overall a great read highly recommend it.
