Synopsis "The Ghost Pirates (in English)"

This book forms the last of three. The first published was "The Boats of the 'Glen Carrig'"; the second, "The House on the Borderland"; this, the third, completes what, perhaps, may be termed a trilogy; for, though very different in scope, each of the three books deals with certain conceptions that have an elemental kinship. With this book, the author believes that he closes the door, so far as he is concerned, on a particular phase of constructive thought.

View Author's Page
Nació en 1875, hijo de un clérigo de Essex, y desde muy temprano se hizo a la mar como tripulante de barcos mercantes. No obstante, Hodgson aborrecía aquella vida, y en cuanto tuvo ocasión la abandonó para dedicarse a otras labores y a escribir relatos llenos de misterio, terror y aventura, ambientados muchos de ellos en el mar, un mar peligroso y lleno de entidades monstruosas y barcos abandonados. A pesar de que durante años la obra de Hodgson permaneció en el olvido a causa de su temprana muerte en Francia, durante la Primera Guerra Mundial, truncándose así su carrera literaria, autores como H.P. Lovecraft, que hablaba con entusiasmo de su novela sobrenatural La casa en el confín de la tierra (en esta misma colección), o Clark Ashton Smith lo reivindicaron como maestro (junto a Ambrose Bierce y otros) de la naciente escuela norteamericana del Horror Sobrenatural.
