The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists by Gideon Defoe

4.0

---

I grew up in a family where you just can't go wrong with silly pirate humor. I picked this up a few years ago when browsing the library and grew attracted to the humor in Defoe's biography. I quickly ran out and bought the entire series just after finishing. The zany, madcap humor is a great way to take a break from more "serious" literature and just enjoy a book on a nice day. I have passed it on to many friends since when they desperately needed a laugh. I am looking forward to when I have the chance to see the new movie and am very eager for the release of The Pirates! In an Adventure with Romantics! (as an English major, the latter will be particularly exciting) I highly recommend it!
