Captain William

New Book Review

I was sent a copy of the new book Flint and Silver: A Prequel to Treasure Island by John Drake. I've had a chance to read this book and must say I'm very impressed. It's a prequel to the beloved book Treasure Island. There are tons of fiction books about pirates, some better than others. Any pirate loving person needs to have this book in their library. It starts off with some pirate boarding action and keeps the pace strong throughout the entire book. It's an easy, engaging read which is difficult to put down. If I haven't convinced you enough yet, then read this description of the book: When Robert Louis Stevenson wrote Treasure Island in 1883, the evil Captain Flint was already dead and Long John Silver had already lost his leg. Drake imagines the lead up to that classic pirate tale, offering a witty and exciting explanation of how Silver became a pirate, lost his leg and gained a parrot; how Flint conspired to bury his pirate loot and murder everyone within pistol shot; and how Flint and Silver became friends, then bitter enemies. Flint and Silver's paths intersect in the Caribbean, where they team up to terrorize Spanish treasure ships and other unfortunate vessels. They argue and fight over the crew's loyalty and the treasure, but the real wedge is an escaped slave girl named Selena. Drake's novel is rich in historical detail and riveting in its vivid depictions of sea battles, torture, murder and lurid pirate revelry. Though the abrupt conclusion creates a clumsy segue to the forthcoming sequel, this is a rousing swashbuckler loaded with action, greed, treachery and graphic violence. Go get a copy and read it today. Great book.

Pirate of the Month

The Pirate of the Month is Sir Henry Morgan

    Sir Henry Morgan wasn't an Actual Pirate at all.  He was a Welsh privateer, who made a name in the Caribbean as a leader of buccaneers. He was among England's most notorious and successful privateers.
