The Hunters concludes the three book arc of Brotherband books. The crew completes the adventure by way of a "ship duel" with the pirate. The author enjoys messing with gender roles. The "girl" is the sharpshooter, while one of the viking warrior knits. The other band members initially make fun of him, but all really want the hats that he makes. There are numerous escapades as they sail down a river, are arrested for murder, break out of jail, burn a corrupt official's boat, sail down rapids, pretend to be pirates, and eventually sink the real pirate's ship in a public duel. It is recounted "elegantly" in a musical saga at the end. This book is filled with adventure after adventure and a nice "mid-end" to the Brotherband books.
