Praise for The Pirates of Somalia:

—Michael Nicholson, author of Welcome to Sarajevo: Natasha’s Story
“A punchy and impressive debut. . . . A brave and timely book that reaches far behind the glib newspaper headlines to uncover the hidden world of Somali piracy.”
—Justin Marozzi, author of The Man Who Invented History: Travels with Herodotus
“A plucky and perceptive behind-the-scenes look at one of the most extraordinary phenomena of our times.”
—Robert Calderisi, author of The Trouble with Africa: Why Foreign Aid Isn't Working
“A rare and fascinating glimpse into modern-day piracy."
—Mellissa Fung, author of Under an Afghan Sky: A Memoir of Captivity
"Engaging. . . a rich, suspenseful account."
—Publishers Weekly
"Revelatory. . . Bahadur's astute analysis of causes and solutions prove far more informative than any TV footage about the contemporary piracy problem."

—The Sunday Times
