Library Journal Seventeenth-century adventure awaits readers in Attanasio’s novel. Jaki Gefjon is a half-breed, raised among headhunters of Borneo and trained as a ”soul catcher” (medicine man). Drawn by the mystery of his Dutch father into a European way of life, Jaki joins pirate captain Trevor Pym under the fearsome serpent banner of Wyvern to combat the mercantile empires exploiting Asia. Jaki’s saga is laced with mysticism as he struggles to understand the meaning of his life, buffeted by competing cultures. His mother, his mentor, Jabalwan, the pirate Pym, and his English wife help him to progress to self-knowledge. This solid adventure fantasy is recommended for popular fiction collections. William C. McCully, Park Ridge P.L., Ill.
