The infamous pirate Blackbeard made a pact with Satan to turn pirates into zombies and unleash the demons of Hell on the world. Only the pirate Captain Bartholomew Roberts and the beautiful pirate Anne Bonny can stop him and his demon hordes at the very mouth of Hell.

The Legend of Anne Bonny was recorded by Captain Charles Johnson in a book published in 1724 entitled A General History of the Robberies & Murders of the Most Notorious Pyrates. Anne was a colonial aristocrat and the embellished daughter of the revered Chancellor of South Carolina. She rebelled at the age of sixteen when she eloped with James Bonny and was taken to the island of Providence to live among the pirates in 1716. Anne was a woman way before her time who had the courage to search for true love and discover the ultimate meaning of freedom. As she sailed the open seas as a pirate, Anne faced challenges and quests that no other woman of her era had ever endured. Her exploits branded her as an Ill-tempered harlot as she sailed under the command of her captain John Rackam and was pursued by the inescapable armed forces of the English Royal Colony Jamaica. Despite the public shame of her deeds, her father’s unending love prevailed during her times of trials and tribulations. We follow their adventures with intrigue and hope for Anne and her fellow pirates, as well as for her true love’s safety. Only several plot points are known about the life of Anne Bonny and over the years the connection between each has been filled in with speculation labeling her as an uncouth woman, while ignoring other parts of her legend that reveal a more noble character. The Profligate was written in order to resurrect her vibrant spirit and tell her story where all the plot points are included to reveal a more realistic portrait as to who Anne Bonny may truly have been.

Sentenced to hang for piracy in 1720, Anne Bonny's sentence is commuted to life in a British prison. She escapes to seek a hidden treasure, and revenge on the British naval officer who raped her and killed her family.

While searching for rumored treasure in a cave on Coffin Cay, a small island off the southwestern tip of Haiti (Hispaniola), Ricky suffers an absence seizure. During his last trance-like episode, Ricky uncovered a treasure from the Nuestra Señora de Riqueza, a vessel in an armada of ships sailing the Spanish Main. Now back on Coffin Cay with his parents, Ricky hunts for the treasure he found in the cave over three hundred years earlier during his trip back to pirate land. The End of Calico Jack is a fictional retelling of the pirate escapades of Calico Jack, Anne Bonny, and Mary Read. The story is based on historical research of the life of "Calico Jack" John Rackham. Some liberties have been taken in the telling of the story, but many of the events reflect what historians believed happened to Jack, Mary, and Anne. Also, in real life those who suffer absence seizures may appear to be in a trance but cannot recall what happens during their episode. The book includes a PIRATE MAP of Calico Jack's sailing routes and the ports he visited. Parents can trust the Caribbean Chronicles Series. There is no sexual dialogue or situations, violence, or strong language, only positive moral values and a wee little bit of humor. :) We hope you enjoy these pirate books for young adults, teens, and older kids.

For the living, the dead, and the people stuck somewhere in between, Heron Creek has become a battleground. Graciela Harper might be new seeing ghosts, fighting curses, and just living with her old friends again, but there’s no doubt she’s on the front lines—and overwhelmed. Leo and Mel have been arrested. Amelia teeters on the edge of a deep depression that could cost her her child. Beau, her boyfriend who might not quite be her boyfriend anymore, is breaking her heart. None of that will matter if Gracie can’t figure out how to break the hundreds year old curse on the male line of her family. She knows she needs to focus on that, but with the future of one of South Carolina’s oldest and most prestigious families hanging in the balance, she’s tempted to try to save them, too. What Gracie’s about to learn is that she can’t do this alone, and every single person who has entered her life since her return to Heron Creek will need to pitch in for her to succeed. Well, that and the fact that she might not be able to save everyone…not even herself.

Fed up with an outlaw existence, Calico Jack Rackam swears off the pirate life, until he meets Anne Bonny, a woman who would as soon stab a man as give him a good tumble—that is, unless he's a pirate. Soon Jack finds himself out on the high seas, with Anne by his side and his men spoiling for action.
