About this ebook

Assassin's Creed: Black Flag is the sixth title in Oliver Bowden's phenomenally successful Assassin's Creed videogame tie-in series.

It's the Golden Age of Piracy - a time when greed, ambition and corruption overcome all loyalties - and a brash young captain, Edward Kenway, is making his name known for being one of the greatest pirates of his day.

Ratings and reviews

I was dissapointed that I didn't get another Assassin's Creed game starring Edward, but this book gives more character to my favourite Assassin than I thought possible. The beginning and end in Bristol satisfies my want of Edward's origin and events after the game. I can only hope there'll be a new book about Edward's adventures in London, building the Assassins.

I played the game first and it was amazing, couldn't believe the Assassin spirit back then. When I read the book I remembered my gameplay! Great Job to Mr. Bowden!

I got 2 1/2 chapters through but found in flat and boring. I also found it using the same verbs and adjectives. It's pretty poor
