Book Description
======
In the year 1689, a cabal of Barbary galley slaves, including one "Half-Cocked
Jack" Shaftoe, devises a daring plan to win freedom and fortune. A great
adventure ensues that will place the intrepid band at odds with the
mighty and the mad, with alchemists, Jesuits, great navies, pirate queens,
and vengeful despots across vast oceans and around the globe.
Back in Europe, the exquisite and resourceful Eliza, Countess de la
Zeur, master of markets, pawn and confidante of enemy kings, onetime
Turkish harem virgin, is stripped of her immense personal fortune by
France’s most dashing privateer. Penniless and at risk from those who
desire either her or her head (or both), she is caught up in a web of
international intrigue, even as she desperately seeks the return of
her most precious possession — her child.Meanwhile, Newton and Leibniz
continue to propound their grand theories as their infamous rivalry
intensifies. And Daniel Waterhouse seeks passage to the Massachusetts
colony in hopes of escaping the madness into which his world has descended.—
The Baroque Cycle, Neal Stephenson’s award-winning series, spans the
late 17th and early 18th centuries, combining history, adventure, science,
invention, piracy, and alchemy into one sweeping tale. It is a gloriously
rich, entertaining, and endlessly inventive historical epic populated
by the likes of Isaac Newton, William of Orange, Benjamin Franklin,
and King Louis XIV, along with some of the most inventive literary characters
in modern fiction.
Audible’s complete and unabridged presentation of The Baroque Cycle
was produced in cooperation with Neal Stephenson. Each volume includes
an exclusive introduction read by the author.
