A review by beesandbooks
Captain Blood by Rafael Sabatini

3.0

I really did enjoy Captain Blood! It has more action to sustain it than some of the longer, drawn out examples of pirate literature and despite my historical confusion over Morgan’s exploits, the conflicts and dialogue are engaging and well written. I found that I did like all the characters the reader is meant to like, and I thoroughly disliked all of the antagonists of the story. Blood was easy to root for, as he was designed to be, and with that characterization I was also able to enjoy and follow the story of his adventures. As an example of a standard pirate literature adventure novel, I think this books stands pretty well on its own two feet and is definitely worth attention if you’re interested in pirates, or maritime stories at all.
