Özet
 Ireland, 1535.

The sea is no place for a girl.

Least of all Grace O'Malley, the only daughter of a powerful chieftain and the family's best hope of securing a strong alliance through childbirth. But something wild and unexpected stirs within Grace, a yearning that neither her father nor her mother - nor even the brutal warrior she is eventually forced to marry - can suppress for long.

1586. Over the past half-century, the determined young girl has defied all expectations. Now heir to clan O'Malley's mighty fleet and a formidable mother, Grace is prepared to kill to protect what is hers. So when Queen Elizabeth's incursions into Ireland grow bolder she must fight to defend her land, her ships and the people she loves most.

Keenly observed and fiercely written, The Pirate Queen is a sweeping historical adventure inspired by the life of Grace O'Malley, the legendary Irish folk heroine who risked everything to save her people.©2026 Ariel Lawhon Historical Fiction Evlilik Kraliyet Korsan

I have rounded this up to 4 star as it is a very well cleverly written, well researched, full of detail albeit a bit heavy going for me.
The narration was very good, at a good speed and fitted the story well. The story was great. No peaks or troughs. Just something constantly happening. I actually feel exhausted now l've finished it. I do wish I had read this in date order as I'd seen recommended but I felt I was cheating the way the author wanted it to be listened to. Each chapter started at a different point of her life just when I was becoming invested in that time line it would switch to another and I spent half my time thinking back to match up what I already knew from the history of each.
That being said, I thought it was very cleverly put together.
As I listened on audio, my bad but I can get distracted and then I'd hear a new name or a duplicate name (there was multiple Richard's for example) and had to back track to see who she was talking about.

Maybe listen in date order?

This is one of the best audiobooks I’ve ever listened to! Such a wonderful story of a woman overcoming such fascinating challenges and circumstances in a time when the world was ruled by men, hate and brutality. It kept me captivated throughout and desperately wanting Grace O’Malley’s tenacity, guile and love of her family to always prevail. I was so sad when it ended but it will last in my memory for a long time!

What a fabulous story of an inspirational woman!
