It starts out with tales of the high seas and would be pirates. Then goes on to semi-biographies of real pirates such as John Teech (Blackbeard) and Capt Kidd. Then you get into some utter fiction that was just horrible. Some of the later stories are just a list of a pirate and then they go from ship to ship to ship. Just kind of a list of who they attacked no fun at all. When I saw that it was the same author I skipped whole stories. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Ghosts. Pirates. Put the two together and you've got a winning combination of the most exciting stories ever written. It's enough to make anyone say, "Shiver me timbers"--with delight.The spirits of Davy Jones's locker have a long and colorful history among sailors and lovers of literature. From Daniel Defoe's "The Four Years Voyages of Capt. George Roberts" to Thomas Smollet's "The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle" to Washington Irving's "Adventures of the Black Fisherman," ghost pirates swashbuckle in and out of the scene, stealing the souls of the doomed and frightening the innocent. Prepare yourself for a thrilling ride. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
