This is a very professional looking product excellently printed with 13 short stories about... well, pirates.
The stories are from different creative teams and as such are of varying quality. Printed in black and white each story is 3 or 4 pages long; some drawn in pencil and brush others in black ink. Some are good and some very bad; same goes for the stories. My personal favourite All that Glisten is not Gold is a 3 page tale using only Lego pirate play sets and figures, which I though was very clever and very funny.
Altogether a very well put together effort, I'm not sure if it's worth the cover price of £3.50, but I'm sure it's that high only to cover the printing costs.
