(Audiobook)
Sono sempre più convinta che questa saga avrebbe dovuto chiamarsi "Le Avventure di Carmaux e Wan Stiller", e menzione d'onore anche per Moko che è essenzialmente il Piero Angela delle Antille. Purtroppo si deve aggiungere anche un bel TW a causa dei costanti appellativi razzisti.

The second and final part of the Black Corsair's journey for revenge.

The book has rich pictures and good narrative. It has many battle and tense scenes, as well as funny fillers in between. You won't get tired of their adventure and you'll probably wish humans were like most of the characters in the book.

Gentlemen's honour, men's loyalty, skilled fighters and a much desired revenge.

The English version, which I've read, is very good and if I didn't know, I wouldn't suspect it wasn't the original language.

The book does contain a lot of violent and graphic scenes, but keep in mind that the book was written in early 20th century telling the tale of a 17th century pirate, seeking—a quite righteous, if you ask me—revenge.
