Title: Mississippi Jack: Being an Account of the Further Waterborne Adventures of Jacky Faber, Midshipman, Fine Lady, and Lily of the West
Author: L.A. Meyer
Pages: 624
Genre: YA, fiction, adventure
Biggest book so far and I think I read this the fastest. Fun alternate adventure in the wilds of colonial America. Totally over her fiance Jaimy though. Just don't care anymore and very anxious for Jacky to hook up with one of the other and much more sexy rogues she comes across. I liked the ending of this book, not as cliff-hanger-y as the rest.
BLURB: The intrepid Jacky Faber, having once again eluded British authorities, heads west, hoping that no one will recognize her in the wilds of America. There she tricks the tall-tale hero Mike Fink out of his flatboat, equips it as a floating casino-showboat, and heads south to New Orleans, battling murderous bandits, British soldiers, and other scoundrels along the way. Will Jacky's carelessness and impulsive actions ultimately cause her beloved Jaimy to be left in her wake?
