Captain Blood by Rafael Sabatini
4.0
Raucous sea-faring adventure with the clearest lines between right and wrong you’ll ever see… which is both good and bad. The treatment of women in the story as prizes and second class is ugly. The story is a lot more fantasy than I remember, things just work out for the protagonist in ways I didn’t notice on my first reading.
BUT, if you can ignore the ridiculous off the whole affair, it really is a fun adventure that skips along very quickly. Robert Whitfield as audiobook reader is excellent as well.
