- Audie Award Winner, Children's Titles - Ages 12+, 2008
Featured Article: The top 100 kids books of all time
Listening to a story is the first way that we’re introduced to books as kids. And while our parents and grandparents (and babysitters and siblings!) are no doubt wonderful narrators who left indelible marks on our bookish hearts, the performances featured on this list elevate these stories to new heights. Representing listens for kids ages 0-12, and featuring animals, magical creatures, awkward middle schoolers, and more, our kids essentials will help you rediscover the magic of childhood.

I also think the title is a bit misleading. Jacky gets the nickname "Bloody Jack" because she happens to kill an unworthy individual in self-defense and another in a battle with pirates, but the story is actually a touching coming-of-age story that is mixed with lots of fun and adventure. It's a light, easy listen once Jacky becomes a ship's "boy." The ending is good, but definitely leaves the door open for the rest of the series.
PERFORMANCE - Amazing! Katherine Kellgren is one of my favorite narrators. I was undecided about this series until I noticed she was the narrator. She gives every character a different voice and accent and they're all wonderful. There's even a toothless pirate, and you can literally "see" him when you hear her portrayal. (She also reads the Her Royal Spyness series.) You must hear her to believe how good she is.
OVERALL - (Actual rating 4.5 stars) This is Book 1 of the series, and you should listen to them in order. As I mentioned above, I would recommend this for high school age and above. Guys and gals would probably both enjoy the adventures of Jacky and her crew.
Award-winning author and narrator. 'Nuf said!

Would you consider the audio edition of Bloody Jack to be better than the print version?
Yes, Katherine Kellgren is one of audible's best! her singing is great, and she is so enthusiastic in her reading, especially when Jackie gets excited, that she is almost exhausting!What did you like best about this story?
Our heroine is truly lovable, she is not perfect but completely good-hearted. She has a few moments in the book when she makes the decision that you want to scream at her not to, but mostly her character is pretty authentic.What about Katherine Kellgren’s performance did you like?
All of it, she's a star. It's great when the narrator can sing!Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
absolutely, I stayed in my car for an hour waiting to find a good stopping point, then just put on my headphones and cleaned the house so I didn't have to turn it off.Any additional comments?
I don't like depressing books, and the first hour of the book had me ready to quit, but I'm really glad I held on. The whole series is great!Hold on for a really sad beginning, but great book

Katherine Kellgren will long be THE voice for Jacky, but L.A. Meyer created the voice of the willful, strong, courageous pirate inside me. Thank you L.A. Meyer for creating these books, Thank you Katherine for reading them so brilliantly, and Thank you AUDIBLE for making them available for me to read over and over and over again.
