Hunt for White Gold by Mark Keating
4.0
I do love a swashbuckling pirate adventure, ram-packed full of action and good old fashion sword fights.
This is the second in the series and I'm LOVING it. Just as exciting as the first book; same feel and writing, just a different storyline. A series like this could really go on forever with a different pirate adventure each time.
I'm a big lover of pirates anyway, having read a lot of history books on the 'Golden Age of Piracy' so this book is right up my street.
It didn't once leave me bored and I love the third person writing, switching from character to character. I feel I get to follow more of the whole story line as opposed to first person, where we're only hearing from the main character. But this book jumps from the hero, to the bad guy, to crew member, back to the hero, and I feel really immersed in this style, getting the full picture, even if the characters don't.
Exciting from start to finish, this is a book series you don't want to miss out on.
