Book: “Pirate Latitudes” by Michael Crichton
July 16, 2011
On our recent 40 plus hour road trip with the family listened to the audio book “Pirate Latitudes” by Michael Crichton. It is not my normal type of book but it did keep Jake and I engaged in the story during the wee hours of the morning on our trip. There are some parts of the book I would not recommend for the kids but for the most part it was fine. We listened to it while the girls were sleeping through the night or had their headphones on for their movie. The 17th century pirate story is based in Port Royal, Jamaica. It is a story of pirates in search for a treasure and the adventures that accompanied their journey. Like many of Crichton’s stories it is based on historical fiction which I feel adds to the depth of the book.
