Blackbeard: To Live by the Drink, To Die by the Sword
In 1718, the mystery of ancient evil was still very much alive. Witches plagued the shadowed and troubled corners of the world. Winged beasts reportedly burnt down cities from their dominion in the sky. Monsters sank ships and stole entire fortunes while devouring people whole. Evil was everywhere as devils and demons playfully tortured mankind in an era where humanity struggled to survive. One such devil of the dark wrought so much terror upon the colonized Americas that his name alone would haunt the minds of men for generations to come.
Yet very little was actually recorded about the one they called Blackbeard, thus leaving the horrors of his legacy up to interpretation. What was Blackbeard actually like? Was he truly a master of the dark arts as some claimed? Or did his fearsome reputation simply replace the man with the myth? What about the rest of the world? How did they view Blackbeard? And more importantly, how would he come to view himself? From the eyes of ship captains and brothel owners to pirate commanders and the mind of Blackbeard, relive this tantalizing tale based on true events as author Paul Boone immerses his readers in a world forgotten so long ago.
