Orc Pirate

Bardak Skullsplitter, captain of the Hullbreaker, is a privateer in the service to the Empire. Called in to port, Bardak is told by the local governor the Admiralty is no longer in need of his service, or any other orc’s for that matter. The Emperor has decided to stop enlisting orcs and enslave them instead; thus, the privateer turns pirate, after killing the governor, of course. Bardak and his crew head to the free cities and hatches a plan to destroy the Admiralty. But to do that, he’ll need more ships and money. And so, Captain Skullsplitter and the Hullbreaker set off to find the treasure of Bloody Bill, the self-proclaimed Pirate King.

I really liked this book. It was both fun and funny. The sexy parts weren’t awfully written or overly unrealistic, which was a bit of a shock from a book summarized as containing a harem and adult situations. 10/10 would recommend!
