Yaar, pirates! I must admit I didn''t read the whole book. Hope you enjoy it! Here''s the blurb:
1837: the Victorian Era approaches and the golden age of piracy draws to a close. Worried that his pirates are getting bored with a life of winking at pretty native ladies, sitting about on tropical beaches, and trying to stick enough jellyfish together to make a bouncy castle, the Pirate Captain decides it''s time they had an adventure. A chance encounter with the young Charles Darwin - embarked upon the voyage of discovery that will one day make him famous - leads the Captain and his rag-tag crew from the exotic Galapagos Islands to the fog filled streets of Victorian London, where they encounter grisly murder, vanishing ladies, a diabolical Bishop, the Elephant Man, and have an exciting trip to the zoo.

hm I have to admit that the pirates topic isn't my favourite reading topic. Because this book still looks so cute I will send it back to the UK to another BCer as a surprise.

Thank you for the charming little book that accompanied an audiobook on it's travels to the UK. I will have a read and then pass it on!
