Chesko wrote: 01 Apr 2022, 02:16 I loved the author's depiction of Brandy and John's relationship. He talks about their family, their children Arthur and Katrina, and I thought there could be a story there. I do not know if there would be enough to write about, but I would like to know how that family navigates through life experiences. Maybe even another piracy adventure. What do you think??
Although I feel content with the current ending, I agree with you on this one. I too want to know more about the family, but yes, There won't be much to write about ... unless the writer brings in some new twists. I guess a totally new Piracy would be fun to read.

Expecting too much from someone, in my opinion, is always a bad idea. So, even in this case, I believe the book was well-structured and sufficient to tell the stories. As a result, I do not anticipate a sequel from the author.

U think having a sequel would only bring in unnecessary plots. The dissolution was absolutely satisfactory.

I found the conclusion of this book very satisfying, with no loose ends that would require a sequel. However, if the author chose to write a follow-up book about the next generation, there is certainly room for much creativity and a new storyline. I don't see how a future book could ruin this one in any way.

I don't think there is a need or opportunity for the sequel. The ending tied all ends.

This book ended well. I don't think a sequel is necessary but who knows the sequel might make a lot of sense

I don't think this book deserves the sequel, as the author didn't pretty much leave a room for it. But to people who are attached to the characters would love it, although I think it would be a great let down, as most sequels are.

I dont think the book needed a sequel. It ended well. A sequel might affect the book's originality.

Na, definitely not a sequel. The story is already beautiful as it is and it did not end in a cliffhanger so there is not need for a sequel.

The author is clearly creative but I don't think a sequel could come out of this story.

A sequel won't be necessary. This is because a sequel would be boring as all the details have been revealed.

I don't think a sequel is necessary because it might spoil the suspense at which the book ended. A sequel may remove the essence of the book.

I enjoyed the books ending as it was. I don't subscribe to a sequel. It seems fine as it is.

I think they are certainly a good subplot to the book's general plot and there is nothing else worth exploring there. There is definitely no need for a sequel.
