What is In the Belly of the Bloodhound: Being an Account of a Particularly Peculiar Adventure in the Life of Jacky Faber (Bloody Jack Adventures) about?
From School Library Journal Grade 8 Up—In this installment in the series, the teen is back in Boston as a student at the Lawson Peabody School for Young Girls. While there, she tries to comport herself as a proper young lady in polite society. When the girls go on a field trip to a nearby island, they are kidnapped and put on a slave ship called the Bloodhound , which is bound for Africa. Jacky quickly falls back on her seagoing experience to organize the captives into divisions and devise a daring escape plan, which could mean the difference between life and death. Readers unfamiliar with the previous books will have a difficult time following the action. It is not made clear what Jacky's previous adventures were and how she came to be in Boston and at the school. The narrative is somewhat slow and does not pick up speed until far into the journey on the slave ship. Jacky is a strong protagonist whose exploits are astounding and hair-raising, but the secondary characters are not as well developed.— Kristen Oravec, Cuyahoga County Public Library, Strongsville, OH Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
