评分一般般
评分Harvard1650年代毕业的私掠船长的故事
评分Dr. Crichton's last finished novel, discovered in his computer files by his assistant after his death. 不是克莱顿一贯的关注点,没有大公司,没有失控的前沿科学。但是却更男性化,粗野异常,我喜欢
From one of the best-loved authors of all time comes an irresistible adventure of swashbuckling pirates in the New World, a classic story of treasure and betrayal. The Caribbean, 1665. A remote colony of the English Crown, the island of Jamaica holds out against the vast supremacy of the Spanish empire. Port Royal, its capital, is a cutthroat town of taverns, grog shops, and bawdy houses. In this steamy climate there's a living to be made, a living that can end swiftly by disease--or by dagger. For Captain Charles Hunter, gold in Spanish hands is gold for the taking, and the law of the land rests with those ruthless enough to make it. Word in port is that the galleon "El Trinidad," fresh from New Spain, is awaiting repairs in a nearby harbor. Heavily fortified, the impregnable harbor is guarded by the bloodthirsty Cazalla, a favorite commander of the Spanish king himself. With backing from a powerful ally, Hunter assembles a crew of ruffians to infiltrate the enemy outpost and commandeer "El Trinidad," along with its fortune in Spanish gold. The raid is as perilous as the bloodiest tales of island legend, and Hunter will lose more than one man before he even sets foot on foreign shores, where dense jungle and the firepower of Spanish infantry stand between him and the treasure. . . . "Pirate Latitudes" is Michael Crichton at his best: a rollicking adventure tale pulsing with relentless action, crackling atmosphere, and heart-pounding suspense.
一本据说是MC断断续续写了十几年的书。文笔一如之前的现代科幻题材,情节紧凑而富有悬念。读英文原版更是能体会MC用词的严谨和准确。 但毕竟历史故事不比当代科幻,一些细节难免禁不住推敲,偶尔也很有戛然而止的意味。但如果你喜欢MC先前的作品,PL也不会让你失望的!

评分命运之事真是奇妙。一个人的未来或许就取决于那些不起眼的小事。假若不是年轻时的迈克尔·克莱顿将哈佛大学英语系告上公堂,也许这个世界上就会少掉一位不世出的科技惊险小说家,而会多上一位学院派出身的严肃小说家。今人提起迈克尔·克莱顿时,必定不会忘记他的医学博士背景...
