Black Sails

Black Sails
A prequel to the (fictional) events of Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island". The series centres on a group of pirates operating out of Nassau in the Bahamas. We meet characters from history - Captain Charles Vane, Governor Woodes Rogers, Jack Rackham and Anne Bonny - plus characters from fiction - Captain Flint and, of course, Long John Silver.
The Gutter Monkey reviewedMarch 24, 2025
A surprisingly well-written show that weaves in bits of real-life history to tell a fictional origin story of a Treasure Island character.
