HTML version by Al Haines. "Black Bartlemy's Treasure" by Jeffery Farnol is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a protagonist who rises from the depths of despair and slavery to seek vengeance against his enemy, set against a backdrop of adventure and the quest for treasure. The main character's journey is fueled by a desire for revenge, entwined with encounters that occur both on land and at sea, hinting at themes of honor, retribution, and the struggle for freedom. The beginning of the book presents a harrowing scene where the main character, who is a slave aboard a galleass in constant torment, longs for justice against the oppressor who inflicted suffering upon him. After witnessing the death of a fellow slave and enduring brutal treatment, he makes a daring escape during a chaotic moment on the ship. This prologue sets the stage for his transformation from a chained man to one who seeks vengeance, blending intense action with a sense of growing determination. The narrative then shifts to a rainstorm on Pembury Hill, where he is confronted by his past and a new destiny unfolds as he encounters Lady Joan Brandon, further complicating his quest for revenge and leading him deeper into intrigue and danger.
