A rip-roaring graphic novels series depicts four pirates, one per volume, ­including a few that are lesser known than the usual suspects. Each pirate's story covers their adventures from the beginning of their seagoing journey to their deaths. Without much blood and gore, the action factor of these graphics is sure to excite reluctant readers. Two lesser-known female pirates are discussed, as well as pirates from all over the world. Historical language is covered in a glossary at the end of each book, with the art adding additional context. VERDICT Upper elementary and middle schoolers will love these adventures, and emerging readers will enjoy their simplified language.--Jeri Murphy, Illinois Central College, Peoria, IL ""School Library Journal""
