Nominated for the Sir Walter Raleigh Award for Fiction, The Pirate's Bastard is the tale of Edward Marshall, bastard child of the notorious pirate Stede Bonnet. Only one other person in the 1700s New World's North Carolina knows who his parents are, and Edward means to keep it that way. As a young man intent on building his own life and future, he encounters his father's boatswain who knows his secret and threatens to share it unless Edward does his bidding. Blackmail, a battle at sea, and pirate tales await!

I found this book on the discount shelves of a local used book store.

I am buying books from the outside shelves at The Readers Corner (a Raleigh used book store) and releasing them. This is one of those books. If you like it, take it and write a journal entry at www.BookCrossing.com - its easy and anonymous. Then when you are done with it, find a nice person or place to release it. I look forward to reading your thoughts on this book and finding out where you got it from. This book is on an adventure we can share with it.
