USA TodayThe Caribbean, 1665. A remote colony of the English Crown, the island of Jamaica holds out against the vast supremacy of the Spanish empire. Port Royal, its capital, is a cutthroat town of taverns, grog shops, and bawdy houses. In this steamy climate there s a living to be made, a living that can end swiftly by disease or by dagger. For Captain Charles Hunter, gold in Spanish hands is gold for the taking, and the law of the land rests with those ruthless enough to make it.Pirate Latitudes is Michael Crichton at his best: a rollicking adventure tale pulsing with relentless action, crackling atmosphere, and heart-pounding suspense.

      Decided to purchase from this seller after reading positive reviews about new books others had purchased as I was in need of a new book for a gift. The item wasn’t quite up to new book standards when delivered but the seller not only responded quickly, they processed a full refund. I’d buy from them again.

      EXCITING READ

      Pirates have never interested me. But, the Author Michael Crichton has and still does interest me. He is the most compelling Author of all. He kept me fascinated about the story, because of the research he must have done to gain knowledge of not only Pirates but the sea, creatures of the sea, ships of that time and the expertise in sailing a ship in the 1600's. I learned a lot.

    • Sometimes confusing

      As with most of Michael crichton's books he pulls you in. however; this book moved in segments and at some points was hard to follow. overall a good rating. a hard read but engaging.

    • A marbelous story told by a master storyteller.

      I have read over 20 of Crichton's books - and most all were impressively researched and compelling. The 13th Warrior and Pirate Latitudes were the very best. A delightful story filled with fascinating details, a cunning Captain, and a crew of specialists adept at their tasks. Action packed, great twist ending.
