Time Travel. Pirates. Leveling Up and Crafting. Frank was never the save-the-world type. He joined his college's Jedi dueling club to impress a chick he was into, and only stayed because he was too embarrassed to quit. He's the type to have a crush, but the closest he's gotten to action lately is when he stumbles upon his roommate having a hot threesome. Damn, he'd love to feel what it's like to be that guy. Be careful what you wish for... Life takes an unexpected turn when Frank discovers his grandpa's secret and travels back in time. Finding himself in a land of pirates that doesn't quite line up with what he learned in history class, Frank soon learns he has a special ability to craft weapons based on locations someone has laid out for him and related to the time-travel device. All while bonding with a team of hot-as-sin pirate ladies. Someone else has been traveling in time and messing it up, and now Frank's the only one who can go up against the new Pirate King and put everything as it was. Of course, while finally getting that threesome he was so envious of... and then some. Warning: Harem readers, Gamelit lovers, and anyone else who wants a crazy story with highly adult situations and fun galore should read on. The rest of you, run away as fast as you can before the vileness of this content spreads and sucks you into a story you can't escape.

Lost Pirate Treasures of St. Croix
Author: John A. Boyd
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781490536392
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
The research of John A. Boyd tracks all known pirate activity on the island of St. Croix. Many pirates brought treasure to the island as did smugglers and merchants. It is well documented that Captain James Martel was killed on the island and half of his fortune lost to time so he certainly rates a Chapter. Owen Lloyd took the treasure of Nuestra Senora de Guadelupe. Part of Lloyd's treasure was buried on the island and this stash became his bank until he was murdered in Christiansted. His story has been retold for centuries as part of Robert Luis Stevenson's book, Treasure Island. Only a small amount of this treasure remains on St. Croix so his chapter is small. By far the biggest fortune that probably remains hidden on St. Croix is the vast amount of wealth amassed by Jean La Vasseur while Governor of Tortuga. During his reign, 1640 to 1652, he took a minimum of ten percent of all of the prizes captured by the Buccaneers of Tortuga referred to as the Brethren of the Coast. He also collected taxes on all imports to the island. However, he cheated his partner in this criminal empire, Governor Phillippe de Lonvillers dePoincy of St. Croix, by keeping everything for himself. De Poincy retaliated by conquering Tortuga and claiming the Fortune of La Vasseur as his own. After de Poincy's military conquest of Tortuga, this treasure is also lost to time. The research for this book brings that fortune to St. Croix where it is probably still well hidden.

Pirates and Lost Treasure of Coastal Maine
Author: Greg Latimer
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1439670099
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
The little-known history of the pirates who roamed Maine’s rocky coast and remote islands—and what they left behind . . . Maine has never been regarded as a pirate haven—but only because witnesses were few and far between. With a rugged coast and more than four thousand offshore islands, Maine’s dark waters attracted sea raiders like Dixie Bull from the 1600s through colonial times. Pirate treasure still awaits discovery in Phippsburg and Machias, and pirate deceit prompted a massacre in ancient Fort Loyall. The infamous Captain Kidd may have prowled the waters off Deer Isle, while farther down the coast a woman and a bloodthirsty band of cutthroats lured ships to disaster at Isles of Shoals. In this colorful history featuring reenactment photos and other illustrations, award-winning investigative journalist Greg Latimer separates historical fact from fiction and leads readers on an adventure through the state’s foggy and treacherous past.
