It's a talent that keeps him alive, until the day he's caught stealing milk from the prized cow of a ruthless merchant. His panicked escape unleashes a torrent of magic he never knew he possessed-and catches the eye of the most dangerous crew on the ocean.\u003cbr\u003e\"Rescued\" from the city guards, Finn is thrown into a world of salt, sorcery, and brutal discipline. He is forced to become \"Cadet Rook,\" a kidnapped student aboard the \u003ci\u003eMaelstrom's Heart\u003c\/i\u003e, a legendary ship that serves as a school for magically-gifted pirates. Their mission: to find the \u003cb\u003eTear of the Leviathan\u003c\/b\u003e, an artifact of unimaginable power that can command the seas.\u003cbr\u003eBut Finn soon learns the horrifying truth. The Admiralty doesn't want to teach him to wield magic; they want to use him as a living battery for their shadowy leader.
