2013 book 71

Jennifer A. Nielsen's The Runaway King
The followup to The False Prince is more of the same--lots of adventures, action, pirates, plotting, etc--but avoids a lot of the pitfalls of the second book in a trilogy by having a fairly strong story on its own. I had a couple minor complaints (which I won't discuss, since they spoil the first one, but the title kind of gets at some of my problems) but really like how things concluded, and look forward to the third book. B+.
