Forced to abandon his tobacco and flee, he has to take to sea and finds himself in battle with the ships bound for the Moghul Empire, and in Madagascar he at last comes face to face with his pirate foes.

The Pirate Round is the final book in the Brethren of the Coast trilogy. Have you read The Guardship and The Blackbirder?
