Black Sails at Midnight

By Tom Gnagey

An action/adventure story for nine- to fifteen-year-old readers.
It was summer. The year was 1777. The three-masted ship that almost 13-year-old Zane Miller and his parents were sailing south across the Caribbean Sea, sank in a storm and Zane found himself the only survivor landing on the beach of a small, deserted island. Taking ingenious steps, he manages to survive for several months alone, before making contact with Bartholomew Legend, a pirate who takes him under his wing. A mischievous monkey - Chatter Box - joins the two of them. As their adventures grow, they become close and sail together while fending off other pirates, freeing 100 African men on a slaver boat, capturing a King's ship filled with gold and silver, sink a huge, Portuguese Man-a-War headed to fight George Washington's Army, discover a hidden treasure on an unknown island and, in the end, Zach single-handedly captures the most feared and vicious pirate of all the seven seas. The first book in the series: Bartholomew Legend: The Robin Hood of the Caribbean.
