Showing titles in Sea Adventures

Un'opera divenuta leggenda rivive nelle parole di Pratt, che torna a intrecciare in un romanzo i destini di personaggi indimenticabili come il capitano Rasputin, i giovani Pandora e Cain, e naturalmente Corto Maltese. Seguendo il filo del racconto, ci addentriamo nel raffinato gioco psicologico tra amici e complici, pirati e guerrieri, sullo sfondo dei celebri paesaggi del maestro del fumetto italiano. In un viaggio senza meta, dai vicoli bui di Cordova alle tempeste sull'Oceano Pacifico, assaporiamo di nuovo tutto il piacere puro dell'avventura.
