Demon Pirate
Book 3 in the Bilge Rat: Pirate Adventurer Series
by Kevin C Smith
The maniacal Black Tarantula has catapulted the entirety of the West Indies into utmost panic and pandemonium. Far more demon than mortal, this pirate rogue delights in the torture, persecution and outright slaughter of countless innocents both on land as well at sea. Landlubbers and sailors alike are fraught with harrowing dread and unmitigated apprehension at the mere mention of the degenerate demon’s name.
Despite the daunting peril of this undertaking, the heroic Captain William Bilge risks everything all in a showdown with the unconscionable lunatic.
