Capn Bob Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 What be my favorite piratical fiction? Why, mateys, that be an easy one. It would be The Pyrates, by George MacDonald Fraser, same guy what wrote the Flashman series of books...and also did the screenplay for the 3/4 Musketeers (the 1975 one with Michael York, Oliver Reed, and Frank Finley). Don't be going into the book looking for historical accuracies...its not that kind of pirate story. But there's heroes, anti-heroes (Irish, at that), evil villains, battles between great towering sea castles, duels, rescues, harrowing escapes, lost jungle cities, and, oh yes...pirates. Damn, thats sharp!
