KlappentextFrom Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Robert Silverberg, Lord of Darkness is a classic swashbuckling adventure.
Captured by pirates and brought to the west coast of Africa, young British seaman Andrew Battell longs for his home in seventeenth-century England. His only hope of returning is to work hard and be awarded freedom by his Portuguese captors--a freedom he is consistently denied.
As he is moved farther and farther inland, away from the coast and any hope of a boat back to England, Battell's dreams of freedom begin to dwindle. Finally, taking matters into his own hands, he escapes and takes sanctuary among the Jaqqas, a tribe of cannibalistic warriors lead by the sinister Lord of Darkness ...
Battell recounts his own story in a vivid novel of furious force, singular passion, and intimate detail.
