The first installment of Larry B. Litton Jr.'s long awaited series, The Pirate of the Gods - chronicles the epic journey of Vann Gellis, the Christian boy turned pirate.
"My father once told me that even when justice hangs by the tiniest of threads we must cling to the law, for it's the only thing that separates man from beasts. But he was wrong, sometimes a man has no choice but to take justice into his own hands."
17th century Nassau is a haven for pirates with a government who enables, and even encourages piracy and profiteering. Samuel Gellis is one of the only pious men to be found in Nassau. He has been wrongfully imprisoned by the corrupt Jonathon Anvil. Vann Gellis must find a way to raise the money necessary to free his father. But Vann has a special gift that his father believes was bestowed upon him by God.
"My father told me to stay on the path of righteousness. He told me to I was to be the beacon of light for the world to see God through me and nothing should cause me to stray. But I became a Pirate bastard so I could free him because God did not answer my calls for help."
But Vann does stray. He joins the crew of the Wicked Night, the most brutal pirate ship known in the Caribbean captained by Alain Masterson, the most infamous and savage pirate to have ever sailed the sea. Vann uses his gift to discover where a massive Spanish treasure is hidden and he kidnaps a hostage held by Masterson to go find it.
But Vann is picked up by another pirate ship, captained by the beautiful Jean Valdemere. They quickly find something in common, their love for each other and they go together to seek the treasure. But before they get there, they happen upon Ezra the Holik, a seer from the Obedeah tribe who has been sent by God to stop Vann. But Vann is determined to save his father, and not even God can stop him from seeking his revenge. Vann faces an epic decision that could haunt all of humanity for the rest of time.

Was told about this book by a friend. It's a little different than my normal read, but I was very impressed with the character development and writing style (think he is a first time author). Very difficult to classify this book into a single genre as there are many different elements being explored. It follows a strong path of "Hero's Journey" but uses a realistic and historical look into the life of pirates...including who became pirates and why. It borders on fantasy elements with the search for religion and it's meaning to several different characters. There is a stereotypical "search for self" but it's developed well and caused me to reflect on portions of my own life. And of course, there is a little romance...albeit, in just the right amount to add to the story and not detract from the journey. Also, very obvious the author either knows sailing (or researched it well); however, there is some teaching element to it rather than assuming the reader is as versed as author. The book ended a little quick, which left me disappointed...but only because the next book is not out yet! Definitely ready for the next chapter...Product details

Vann Gellis The Birth of a Pirate Vann Gellis Pirate of the Gods Book 1 edition by Larry B Litton Jr Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it. The story line was so enthralling and full of plot twists, I didn't want to put it down. I really enjoyed the evolution of the characters throughout. All-in-all, this was a fantastic read and I can't wait to see what Van Gellis does next!
,I have not been a reader of Pirate novels, so this was my first venture into that genre. Surprisingly, and particularly considering this was the author's first novel, I found it to be a very good read. The plot is good and should lead to subsequent books involving Vann and Jean. Great characters Vann, his father Samuel, Jean, Anvil - a truly cruel bastard - Ezra the Holik, and Masterson. Will really miss Rafael in future editions, flat out liked that boy. Depicts the pirates of the Caribbean more or less as I remember them from history. Hopeful the next novel will develop the character of Vann, Jean and Masterson more fully and was left wondering whether Anvil's family in Great Britain would retaliate against Vann and how they might go about doing that. As a first offering, this book is definitely worth the read.
