A classic tale of adventure and romance, Rafael Sabatini's Captain Blood tells the story of Peter Blood, doctor and military veteran, who is mistaken for a rebel, arrested, tried, and transported to Barbados, where he is sold into slavery. Escaping his captivity during a raid on the colony, Blood and his fellow convicts capture a Spanish ship and sail off to become the most successful pirates in the Caribbean.

The Greatcoats are back - and this time it's personal. How do you kill a Saint? Falcio, Brasti and Kest are about to find out, as someone is doing just that, and they've started with a friend. The Dukes were already looking for ways to weasel out of their promise to put Aline on her father's throne - but with Saints turning up dead and Church Inquisitors pushing for control, rumours are spreading that the gods themselves oppose her ascension.

El gran clásico de las novelas de aventuras náuticas. La vida del capitán Blood, inspirada directamente en la biografía de Henry Morgan, es un continuo proceso de búsqueda de la libertad, manteniéndose fiel a unos principios de igualdad, en una época en la que la piratería estaba legitimada y era tolerada por los gobiernos europeos.
