    love the opening joke 😂. i had no idea that there were pirates of caribbean books 😮. this whole video is making me want to read more pirate books 😅. i’ll probably start with treasure island!! have you ever seen black sails? i’ve never watched it lol, but my friend who’s into pirates really likes the show 🙂.

    If you want to read about pirates read General History of the Robberies & Murders of the Most Notorious Pirates it was written in 1725. Each chapter is a different pirate like Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, Captain Charles Vane, etc. this book is where we got the history of pirates from.

    Omg I also read these Pirates of the Caribbean lil' books after having a HUUGE hangover from watching the movies! I honestly never heard of the other books (except Treasure Island), but I'm very much into pirates and I'd like to try (especially Peter Pan retellings!). You own so many pirate books hahahaa, I've never seen someone own so many pirate books. Great video!

    I started an audiobook of Treasure Island yesterday after coming across an essay about Stevenson in James Milne's "Memoirs of a Bookman." I'm questioning whether I actually read the full book as a kid, or whether I read an abridged version and am remembering the Muppet's Treasure Island 🤣 At 12 or 13 I was absolutely obsessed with the Jacky Faber books. Definitely read up until Belly of the Bloodhound. I haven't read beyond that one, but it was my favourite. Maybe I should reread myself to see if they live up to my memories.

    It's a children's book, but have you ever read "Swallows And Amazons" by Arthur Ransome? I reread it every now and then. It's about a group of children on holiday who get permission to take a boat out and stay overnight on an island. It's a great adventure book.

    Yeah!! I love pirates!! 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️ My number one recommendation is The Pyrates by George MacDonald Fraser. It's sort of a spoof of pirate movies, similar tone to The Princess Bride. (Also a lot like the Monkey Island games.) It's absolutely hilarious by a phenomenal writer.

    Hey Erika, don't forget The Ghost Pirates by William Hope Hodgson, not an influence on the first Pirates movie as far as I know, but a cult classic. And a book that definitely was an influence on the fourth Pirates movie, On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers.

    • @warlockofwordsreturnsrb4358
      @warlockofwordsreturnsrb4358 4 года назад
