Melkorka (Mel) is the first daughter of a kingdom in the medieval days, Ireland. Feel the pain of everything going wrong. Mel is kidnapped and taken on a slave ship, she suddenly learns on how to survive alone. How did Mel get kidnapped? How does she learn to survive alone? Are her parents worried about her?

I read this book. It's interesting, some parts of the story are sad. Some parts can get pretty confusing. If you like adventure books, then this is the book for you. When the good things go wrong, the wrong things get worse, especially for Mel. It was just any ordinary day and something happens. This book is an amazing book to read and is kind of short and easy book to read, well for me.
