Amazing
This is one of the best swashbuckling stories I’ve ever read. You care for the characters and understand them. It puts an interesting twist on the stories of pirates as captain blood is a gentleman pirate. Amazing
A very worthwhile read
Rafael sabatini has yet again amazed me with his brilliant display of naval knowledge and immaculate storytelling, the plot unravels itself masterfully page by page, this novel will have you turn page after page, quite frankly I read through this wonderful piece of storytelling in one sitting!
A timeless classic - a timeless adventure
Beautiful prose, a genuine insight into human nature and an engaging plot with lots of twists and turns - among Sabatini's best works!
