Pirate's Promise, a Pathfinder Tales novel by Chris A. Jackson, was released in December 2014. An audiobook version narrated by John Pruden was released in October 2015. The novel follows the characters and events of Jackson's 2013 novel, Pirate's Honor.

Freedom's Privateer

Torius Vin is perfectly happy with his life as a pirate captain, sailing the Inner Sea in search of plunder with a bold crew of buccaneers and Celeste, his snake-bodied navigator and one true love. Yet all that changes when his sometimes-friend Vreva—a high-powered courtesan and abolitionist spy in the slaver stronghold of Okeno—draws him into her shadowy network of insurgents. Caught between the slavers he hates and a navy that sees him as a criminal, can Torius continue to choose the path of piracy? Or will he sign on as a privateer, bringing freedom to others—at the price of his own?
