I liked this one. The accent of narrator Neil Hunt was fantastic for the audiobook. An old-fashioned pirate story was just wanted I needed to be a little distracted for a while. Set in a time and place so far removed from the present with such colorful characters, this was fun to listen to while I followed the adventure.

A good story. I found it dragged in a few places, but overall it was good.
