"This book has the saddest ending ever! It's just outrageous, the nerve of Brian Jacques! Anyway the rest of the book is good he's on the sea again. kills a shark meets some awsome guys. It's all good. except for the ending! Oh and don't listen to a song called "When you were young"."

Voyage of Slaves Listener Reviews
-
" I've read the prior books in this series, and as far as I remember I liked them all. This one, however, didn't keep my attention like the others. The writing isn't bad; it's just a little ponderous. The hero Ben is also extremely hard to relate to, since he's essentially a saint in teen's clothing who never has a selfish thought or action. All in all, I made it about halfway through the book before moving on to something more interesting. "
