So, I could reckon that the series had been influenced by the book, but I cannot ascertain this as I’ve never watched the show-though season one’s trailer does seem inspired by Pirate Latitudes. It also worth mentioning that Black Sails debuted in 2014 whereas the novel was published in 2009. Yet Crichton’s work was like a mixture of the two combining both humor and seriousness throughout the 312 pages. There is no doubt this work was compared to the movie franchise Pirates of the Caribbean and the TV series Black Sails. The Jurassic Park writer chose to set this story in the 17th century, and the background research of this book almost made me convinced that it was based on fact rather than fiction. Having read two of Michael Crichton’s novels prior to this one, namely Timeline and The Terminal Man, I was no stranger to his preference for penning in the sci-fi action genre. ![]()
