William Hope Hodgson was one of the finest writers to ver write horror. This tightly plotted novel is both compelling and terrifying. Do not read this one alone on a foggy night.The Ghost Pirates . . . is a powerful account of a doomed and haunted ship on its last voyage and of the terrible sea-devils (of quasi-human aspect and perhaps the spirits of bygone buccaneers) that besiege it and finally drag it down to an unknown fate. With its command of maritime knowledge and its clever selection of hints and incidents suggestive of latent horrors in nature this book at times reaches enviable peaks of power. - H.P. Lovecraft
