threadpanda 's review for:
On Stranger Tides
by Tim Powers
On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers is a tale of piratical adventures on the high seas at the height of Blackbeard's reign of terror. Powers nicely blends historical fact with magical/fantastical fiction into a story that's a great yaaarrrrrrn. (sorry I couldn't resist)
I really, really, really liked this story. I'm really, really, really irritated with whoever edited the galleys on this book. There are so many typographical errors I almost stopped reading. Some sentences ended without periods, or used commas instead of periods, or had commas in the wrong places. At other times, one could find any of the following variations of ship names: the Jenny, the Jenny, theJenny. It was sooooo annoying.
