When fate drags him from the decks of a slave ship into the captains chair of a pirate vessel, Roberts builds something astonishing: a democratic empire afloat, complete with written articles, strict curfews, and Sunday sermons under stolen bishops robes. He captures over four hundred ships in just three years, and makes powerful enemies in the process, including the Royal Navy.

But glory has a cost. As disease rips through his crew and his grip tightens into tyranny, the line between captain and despot begins to blur. And when the warship Swallow finally arrives to end his reign, Black Bart must choose: escape, or face death standing.
