About this audiobook
Golden Age piracy was never freedom—it was bilge rot, maggot-ridden hardtack, bloody flux, rigged “democracy,” and decks slick with punishment and mutiny. Sloop Sepsis drags listeners aboard the real pirate ship: a floating plague vessel where captains preached equal shares from dry cabins while crews chewed worms, pumped filth, and bled for every lie. In this dark, immersive audiobook, Lucius Vespillo tears apart the gentleman-pirate myth and exposes the hunger, disease, violence, and hypocrisy underneath it.
