Ahoy! Read These 15 Books About Pirates For a Wild Ride

In the world of "Ship of Magic" ($10) by Robin Hobb, the rarest ships of all are made from wizardwood: magical, sentient wood. The newly awakened ship Vivacia is helmed by Althea Vestrit, who sees it as her family's legacy, while her nephew resents being taken away from his studies to serve on board. The bigger threat, however, comes from the ruthless pirate Kennit, who has a plan to rule over the Pirate Isles by seizing a liveship . . . one just like the Vivacia.
