Welcome to the World. The world of pyrates...and of warring nations that have been in conflict for nearly two centuries. A world of roaring cannon, the smell of spent black powder smoke, of whistling iron shot and screaming wooden splinters. A world of warfare in the age of sail. A world not so unlike our own some 300 years ago.In this world an unjustly framed captain and crew of a one-hundred gun first rate ship of the line, once pride of the Brellonian fleet, find themselves throwing in with the pyrates. They soon find themselves the leaders of a revolution of those pyrates, the island merchants, and the last remaining tribe of native people; the residents of the many tropical islands of the Cavanarian Sea. Declaring themselves an independent and sovereign nation free of the Brellonian and Fretellone kingdoms, they are forced to fight for that right, using any means available.From bomb ketches to flying boats, from a duel between frigates for the honor of their respective captains, to vengeance and reprisals, this first installment of the Pyrates series will take you on a whirlwind romp that only the age of sail can supply. Wooden ships and iron men (and girls), political intrigue, and royal wrong doings abound.Being an avid fan of Forrester, O'Brian, Pope, and many of the others that have brought the nautical daring dos of seafarers in that wild age of tall ships and black powder cannon to us, I have tried to create something similar, yet something just a little different. Something to stir that little boy or girl in you that had dreams of far off exploits on exotic tropical seas, sailing under billowing white canvas while chasing the ever elusive life of freedom and adventure. So come join the fun, and Huzzah for adventure!
