Historical

The Golden Age of Piracy lasted about ten years. Blackbeard, Black Sam Bellamy, Anne Bonny, Nassau, the Republic of Pirates. The whole glorious, doomed, magnificent mess of it flared brightly, and then the curtain dropped.
    James Calloway knows exactly how it ends.
    He has a marine instincts, a complete foreknowledge of everyone in this world, and a System of unknown origin running what it calls an experiment. The System is helpful in the way a cat is helpful when you're trying to work. It shows up, it wants attention, and it logs his decisions with the enthusiasm of a scientist who expected the rats to do better.
    He is going to build a crew, a cove, a fleet, and if the Caribbean cooperates even slightly, something that looks like a free republic. He will cross paths with every famous name of the era and watch history unfold from the inside.
    James Calloway is the most carefree man in the Caribbean. Woodes Rogers is on his way to fix that.
