NOVEL by: William Hope Hodgson ( horror )","description":"The Ghost Pirates is a novel by William Hope Hodgson, first published in 1909. The economic style of writing has led horror writer Robert Weinberg to describe The Ghost Pirates as \"one of the finest examples of the tightly written novel ever published.\"[citation needed] In it, Hodgson never describes in any remarkable details the ghosts - if this is indeed what they are, since their true nature is left ambiguous - he merely reports on their gradual commandeering of the ship. \"The Ghost Pirates . . . is a powerful account of a doomed and haunted ship on its last voyage, and of the terrible sea-devils (of quasi-human aspect, and perhaps the spirits of bygone buccaneers) that besiege it and finally drag it down to an unknown fate. With its command of maritime knowledge, and its clever selection of hints and incidents suggestive of latent horrors in nature, this book at times reaches enviable peaks of power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Hope Hodgson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540575454\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540575456\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/22\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.37d","brand":"William Hope Hodgson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47136477085951,"sku":"9781540575456","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_38416fdc-0f14-4f71-b24b-e18d3a7382cf.jpg?v=1755023460","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-ghost-pirates-novel-by-william-hope-hodgson-9781540575456","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
