<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>These first six inter-connected short are the so-called \u201cSouth American cycle. The episodes are all set in Latin America in the years 1916 and 1917.<\/em><\/h3>\nThe secret of Tristan Bantam<\/span><\/strong>: Tristan, who has inherited precious papers that tell of the lost kingdom of M\u00fb, has a dream that portends an apparently incomprehensible fate. At Paramaribo, in the sultry heat of Dutch Guyana, Corto finds himself entangled in a sordid tale about a stolen inheritance, while surrounded by such strange characters as Kerster, an unscrupulous lawyer; Jeremiah Steiner, a former university professor, and Madame Java, \u201chotel\u201d manager and expert knife thrower\u2026
\nRendez-Vous in Bahia<\/span><\/strong>: Corto Maltese, Steiner, and Tristan Bantam sail for Bahia to meet Morgana, Tristan\u2019s half-sister. She has their father\u2019s notes concerning the lost continent of M\u00fb, the very papers Tristan glimpsed in his dreams; even the Indians have predicted that his fate lies there. But in Bahia, a lawyer by the name of Milner tries to kill Tristan. Corto exposes Milner and beats him at poker; he wins and Milner loses his life. The treasure hunt can now continue on its way towards Itapoa.
\nSure shot Samba<\/span><\/strong>: At Itapoa, Corto, Tristan, and Steiner meet Bocca Dorata, the great voodoo sorceress who raised Morgana and initiated her into black and white magic. For a thousand pounds, Corto accepts Gold Mouth\u2019s proposal to take weapons and money to the Cangaceiros led by Sureshot, rebels fighting in the Brazilian Sert\u00e3o against the big landholding oil tycoons and their henchmen. Corto and his friends will get tangled up in these conflicts and will have to choose sides.
\nThe Basilian Eagle<\/span><\/strong>: Corto, Tristan, and Steiner sail along the Brazilian coast in search of the wreck of a Spanish galleon loaded with gold. It is supposed to be somewhere in the vicinity of Maraj\u00f2 Island, at the mouth of the Amazon River.
\nBut they are not the only ones on this treasure hunt; they\u2019re part of a plan hatched by Bocca Dorata. Not only will a German baron and a British secret agent intervene, but also the dangerous Jawbreaker, whom Corto will have to confront.
\nThe character of Rasputin, the friend-enemy considered by many to be Corto\u2019s evil alter ego, reappears on the scene from the times of the Ballad in the episode\u00a0And we\u2019ll talk again of the gentlemen of fortune<\/span><\/strong>, in an adventure centred on the search for a fabulous treasure, set in Saint Kitts in the Antilles, The cycle closes with\u00a0Seagull’s Fault<\/span><\/strong>, wherein, despite itself, it is this very bird (which Pratt so loved to draw because of the sense of freedom it gave off in flight) which is the main character of the story set on an island near British Honduras.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Description:<\/strong> E-Book<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Category:<\/strong> Corto Maltese<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Language:<\/strong>\u00a0English<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Publisher:<\/strong>\u00a0Cong Editions<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>This book is available in all major online stores, for Apple devices, Amazon Kindle e Kobo<\/h5>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>AVAILABLE ON AMAZON<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>AVAILABLE FOR KOBO<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>AVAILABLE ON APPLE STORE<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
