Rafael Sabatini
Acerca de esta escucha
A classic tale of adventure and romance, Rafael Sabatini's Captain Blood tells the story of Peter Blood, doctor and military veteran, who is mistaken for a rebel, arrested, tried, and transported to Barbados, where he is sold into slavery.
Escaping his captivity during a raid on the colony, Blood and his fellow convicts capture a Spanish ship and sail off to become the most successful pirates in the Caribbean.
Captain Blood is Sabatini at his very best, succeeding as both an adventure novel and powerful discourse on the evils of slavery and injustice.

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. Word in port is that the galleon El Trinidad, fresh from New Spain, is awaiting repairs in a nearby harbor. Heavily fortified, the impregnable harbor is guarded by the bloodthirsty Cazalla, a favorite commander of the Spanish king himself. With backing from a powerful ally, Hunter assembles a crew of ruffians to infiltrate the enemy outpost and commandeer El Trinidad, along with its fortune in Spanish gold.

After he is rescued by the Ghost and its captain, Wolf Larson, Humphrey discovers that there are fates far worse than death.

Maurice Leblanc, a writer of detective fiction during the same period as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, created Arsene Lupin, a sort of French Robin Hood. An inventive genius, a master of disguise, and an accomplished actor, Lupin operates in the choice chateaux and salons. He scorns sham and with great disdain leaves his card in a baron's residence. The card reads, "Arsene Lupin, gentleman-burglar, will return when the furniture is genuine."

They look alike, but they live in very different worlds. Tom Canty, impoverished and abused by his father, is fascinated with royalty. Edward Tudor, heir to the throne of England, is kind and generous but wants to run free and play in the river - just once. How insubstantial their differences truly are becomes clear when a chance encounter leads to an exchange of clothing - and roles. The pauper finds himself caught up in the pomp and folly of the royal court, and the prince wanders horror-stricken through the lower strata of English society.

It is 1547, and Scotland has been humiliated by an English invasion and is threatened by machinations elsewhere beyond its borders, but it is still free. Paradoxically, her freedom may depend on a man who stands accused of treason. He is Francis Crawford of Lymond, a scapegrace nobleman of crooked felicities and murderous talents, possessed of a scholar's erudition and a tongue as wicked as a rapier. In The Game of Kings, this extraordinary antihero returns to the country that has outlawed him to redeem his reputations even at the risk of his life.

In a meteoric career that spanned a mere 12 years, Robert E. Howard single-handedly invented the genre that came to be called sword and sorcery. From his fertile imagination sprang some of fiction's most enduring heroes. Yet while Conan the Cimmerian is indisputably Howard's greatest creation, it was in his earlier sequence of tales featuring Kull, a fearless warrior with the brooding intellect of a philosopher, that Howard began to develop the distinctive themes and the richly evocative blend of history and mythology .

The mutiny on HMS Bounty, in the South Pacific on 28 April 1789, is one of history's truly great stories - a tale of human drama, intrigue and adventure of the highest order - and in the hands of Peter FitzSimons it comes to life as never before. Commissioned by the Royal Navy to collect breadfruit plants from Tahiti and take them to the West Indies, the Bounty's crew found themselves in a tropical paradise. Five months later, they did not want to leave.

The name Captain James Cook is one of the most recognisable in Australian history - an almost mythic figure who is often discussed, celebrated, reviled and debated. But who was the real James Cook? This Yorkshire farm boy would go on to become the foremost mariner, scientist, navigator and cartographer of his era, and to personally map a third of the globe. His great voyages of discovery were incredible feats of seamanship and navigation.

Sabatini Made Entertaining
I've been a fan of Rafael Sabatini since high school. For me, his endless imagination and plotting his adventures were always fun...like a jigsaw puzzle to figure out...Now as I say this, Mr. Sabatini is not always easy to read, either. He can be quite thick in description for some, although if you love words as I do, you revel in how many different ways he can describe the same scene in various parts of a novel. CAPTAIN BLOOD is great at that.
The reader here is the marvelous Kevin Theis, who has developed into one of the best audio actor/readers around. His clipped, articulate tone...his interest in giving every sentence the proper weight and attention...and here, in his obvious love for the author, Mr. Theis puts us on his vocal ship and steers us expertly through the challenges of Peter Blood. And on occasion, you actually find yourself as a fly on the wall, wishing you were sailing with the crew. It's a ride anyone would enjoy, once they allow themselves the pleasure of such a professional, enjoyable audio experience.
Mr. Theis is among the best. His captivating read of CAPTAIN BLOOD will make you become a fan, as I have.

that narrator though...
wanted to listen to this after Treasure Island, I somehow made it 4 hours in, however I just can't seem to bring myself to go any further. The narrator is excessively enthusiastic in telling the story, to the point of being overbearing. I just can't listen to it anymore. It's like listening to someone on coke talk about their favorite subject.

Imaginative and an epic tale
I could not stop listening and did not want it to end. I’m now working through more of mr. Sabatini’s tales for comparable works. Just so good. Can’t believe I haven’t came across this sooner!
