“This is a really good book. It was the direct inspiration for my book, Leeward. It’s about a mutiny at the end of the 18th century on a ship out in the Caribbean. The crew rose up because they had a really horrible captain. They killed a lot of the officers, took possession of the ship and sailed to a Spanish port in South America. The book is all about how they did that, and about the ship that hunted them down as well. It’s so well written. I could imagine it like a film, really. It’s mad what happened with that ship.” Read more...
