DESCRIPTION:
It’s not an unusual predicament for a pirate to find himself — hunted to the end of his days — but if the Spanish governor manages to persuade the lot to fly under a single banner, it could make life a little more interesting than Hawking wishes. This edition also includes a foreword by J.M. Included in the collection are the first three Jake Hawking short adventures — "A Pirate's Honor", "The Royal Bounty Hunter", and "Little Queen's Gambit" — previously only available as eBooks (also available on ). The governor of Havana has hired three of the most dangerous bounty hunters in the West Indies to track and capture Hawking and his crew. Inspired by the swashbuckler tales of the early 1900s as well as the likes of Errol Flynn and Douglas Fairbanks, the Jake Hawking Adventures promise to thrill readers with swordplay, daring, intrigue, and plenty of high adventure.. With the giant ex-slave Little Queen and the rest of Hawking's crew aboard the snow-brig Broad-Wing, they'll need every ounce of wit, sail, and steel if they're to survive and out duel the bounty hunters. Aucoin, the original single story artwork, and four bonus pirate
Gregory Hemmingway said Wonderful Paperback To My Collection. I must get this out of the way first - I am not a big "pirate genre" person.With that said, the short stories in this collection were fantastic. Mr. Aucoin's words paint a vivid imagery of Jake Hawking, Little Queen and the world that encompasses them. If you're a fan of the "pirate genre" or a fan of well written stories than this collection is for you.I purchased the paperback edition and the build of the book itself is top notch. The binding is sturdy and everything looks great. It is a welcomed collection in my library.I'm not going to go into a review of the. This collection of short adventures featuring Jake Hawking & his pirate crew is a fun read as he matches blades A classic tale of derring-do! This collection of short adventures featuring Jake Hawking & his pirate crew is a fun read as he matches blades, broadsides, & wits w/ bounty hunters out to bring the famed pirate captain down, dead or alive. Fast paced & entertaining, giving a glimpse into the lives & political theatre of the Golden Age of Piracy in the Caribbean, the tales are quick & leave this reader wanting more!. I enjoyed it so much that I did not want it Extremely frustrating to find myself at the last page thinking and then what happened??? I enjoyed it so much that I did not want it to end. Very satisfying to read about a character who prefers to think his way out of a problem. Intriguing character in Little Queen would like to read more about her as well. Keep it up. I look forward to future installments.
