Reviews
"
Pirate Hunter is an extremely readable and fascinating story.... I was especially intrigued by the deep sea and pirate culture, language and the historical context interwoven through both story lines. The thorough research and how the story is crafted with varied creativity is one of the main reasons I continued reading this Morrisey novel. The spiritual truth is effortlessly and believably blended in this tale of high sea adventure.
Pirate Hunter is the ever familiar story of people seeking other pleasures and treasures while deep down longing for and needing eternal satisfaction of the soul. Morrisey is a rock-solid novelist and proves it with Pirate Hunter!" --Dale Lewis, TitleTrakk.com
