The duke and duchess of Swansgaard have been blessed with 12 daughters and one son. To avoid draining the royal coffers by paying a dozen dowries, the princesses elect to seek their own fortunes. On her 18th birthday, Princess Clarice, the eldest, disguises herself as a young lad named Clarence and sets off in search of adventure. Her goal is to build her reputation as a swordsman. She books passage on a ship only to find more adventure than she bargained for when the crew mutinies against the evil captain. Along the way, Clarice falls for Dominick, the ship's navigator-turned-captain, as he leads the crew on a quest for treasure in the pirate haven known as the House of the Four Winds. But how will she tell Dominick that she is really Clarice and not Clarence? VERDICT For the seventh time, Lackey and Mallory ("Obsidian Mountain Trilogy"; "Enduring Flame" series) have paired up for another potential success. Mixing a fairy-tale feel with a few elements of fantasy, this series launch will delight fans of light romances and of Lackey's "Tale of the Five Hundred Kingdoms" books.--Tracey Thompson, Midwest City Lib., OK
