Title: Not as Good as I thought it Would Be
Review: In short, I was disappointed. I was looking for a great adventure, and found myself getting bogged down by the author's penchant for skipping around in different times. For example, you're reading about two pirates and have been reading about them for some time, when suddenly he states, "in fact, they had met some time before..." and then goes to another chapter about what occurred ten years before. He does this several times and I found it disconcerting, and in some cases, boring. This author also has a way of stating an unpleasantry in a blunt and vulgar manner, that looks like he's attempting to shock you. I didn't appreciate that.Read Batavia's Graveyard, The Ice Master, or any other "sea adventure," before choosing this one.
