Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
Gr 5–6—A red sky at night may be a sailor's delight, but for those who long for the scoundrel's life at sea, this book satisfies instead. It's a buccaneer's bounty of tales and artwork sure to appeal to the imagination of wannabe pirates born a couple of centuries too late. The sturdy cover features gold lettering and a skull and crossbones above a cutout framing the smarmy visage of Blackbeard himself. Inside is a treasure trove of abridged yarns by the likes of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Joseph Conrad, Daniel Defoe, and others. Of course the stories deal with pillaging, treachery, and all-around bad behavior on the open seas. The artwork is a dark, graphic-novel-like spin on N.C. Wyeth's illustrations for classics such as Treasure Island and Robinson Crusoe. Tomás uses a bold color palette and has given many of his characters angular faces and staring eyes, all to an appropriately menacing effect. This entertaining package will not make port on the shelves for long.—Alyson Low, Fayetteville Public Library, AR
