The pirate Long John Silver retired in 1742 and settled on a cliff in Madagascar to write his memoirs, which fell into the hands of the British Admiralty. Here his swashbuckling adventures are recounted at breakneck speed, warts and all.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

"A bold act of imaginative piracy" (Robert Nye The Times)

"It brilliantly conjures the wit and verve of swashbuckling classics" (Miranda France Daily Telegraph)

"A brilliant swashbuckling sequel" (David Robson Sunday Telegraph)

"It is to Larsson's credit that his version of this pirate is abounding in energy and complexity. Though he is a different man from that wrought by R.L.S., he is enthralling, charged with wit and wiles and a vivacity of speech that are entertaining and clever" (Scotland on Sunday)

"Larsson's brilliantly-coloured tapestry is worth its weight in gunpowder" (Figaro)
