This book sounds like a thrilling and immersive journey into the 18th-century Caribbean. The dynamic between Jack, Tom, and the pirate crew, along with the detailed portrayal of historical events and daily life, is particularly compelling. Nice review!

Ohh! I love pirate stories AND stories about time travel so this book is right up my alley! I admit I don't know a lot about the time period, so even if its depiction here was historically inaccurate I wouldn't know, but it's nice to hear the author did their research. Definitely a book to check out! Thanks for your review.

I enjoy reading historical fiction, but haven't read any books about pirates during this time period. This sounds like an interesting read, and I am glad to hear about another book that you enjoyed and recommend.

This sounds like a great adventure trip to the 18th century! Your personal research added depth to your review. I think children would enjoy the historical concept of this book too.

The book is fascinating because the story takes place after a war period, the Spanish Succession. The facts and details portrayed arouse curiosity, especially in knowing what life is like on a ship.

Thank you for a delightful review that brought your experience of this book adventure to life!
I am a basic-level fan of pirate stories and have a fair knowledge of piracy both in fantasy books and also in reality.
" The Time Cave- Spanish Main", by Trevor Anderson, sounds quite a in-depth and well-researched in terms of the setting of this particular story.
The characters and plot lines merge beautifully, setting the sails on this adventure to course.
Not all stories have the perfect and calculated ending, and this sometimes is a depiction of the world and its possible outcomes in a broad and diverse range of spectrums.
Congratulations to the author, especially for the impeccable details providing the reader with an authentic pirate experience.

Historical fiction is not my thing but this novel seems interesting because pirates' lives are portrayed with realism, as the author put great attention in all the details of that type of life doing a lot of research. Thank you for your great review!
Ciao :)
