But not too honest; there's still time for a few well-planned conquests on land before taking on Calico Jack Finney, the boldest pirate in the Caribbean But will he make it back? Fans of John Drake, Patrick O'Brian and Pirates of the Caribbean will love The Gun Ketch, the fifth book in the epic Alan Lewrie Naval Adventures. 'You could get addicted to this series. Easily.'
