The Black Lung Captain by Chris Wooding

3.0

I'm not sure if [a:Chris Wooding|81096|Chris Wooding|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1289250690p2/81096.jpg] is familiar with the roleplay system Savage worlds, but while reading this I found myself thinking of stats for some characters and figuring out how I would handle some of the situations in gamewise. This book has that nice pulpy high adventure mix of genres that Savage world is also known for. To be frank this whole book reads like someone's roleplay campaign where they combine Firefly, pirate lore, steam punk with a hint of horror. Nice characters, funny dialogue, larger then live action, betrayal, loyalty and stubbornness. I don't really understand why this is not yet optioned for a tv show. I would most certainly watch.
