Caribbean Adventures by Fred G. Baker is a collection of exciting stories that follow the adventures of Captain Alex, a unique pirate sailing the seas with his loyal crew in search of treasure. Unlike traditional pirates, Alex is modern and uses current technology, including drones and advanced weaponry. In this book, he hijacks luxury ships, hunts for lost Nazi treasure, and solves ancient mysteries with the help of his friend Sydney, a researcher with an adventurous spirit. Alex adheres to a personal code: saving kidnapped children, assisting refugees seeking asylum and medical care, and avoiding cursed treasures. However, the high seas are not always smooth sailing. Alex faces enemies and rivals who will go to any lengths to reach the treasure before him or steal his finds.

Caribbean Adventures is the second book in the Modern Pirate Series by Fred G. Baker, covering exciting tales about modern and ancient treasures. The author takes readers on a journey through time to locations like Roanoke and Mayan temples, revealing how these treasures came to be and the stories behind them. I was engrossed in the tales, especially that of Captain Alvarez and the ambitious tribal prince, Tizic. The characters were my favorite aspect of the book; I enjoyed getting to know their personalities. Alex is charismatic, and you can't help but root for him. His right-hand man, Diego, is level-headed and loyal, always ready with useful advice. My favorite character is Chen, a highly skilled woman who loves to get things done quickly but has a fear of snakes, which becomes a source of humor for Sydney on their adventure in the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico. Overall, this is a fantastic read, and I highly recommend it to fans of adventure novels that blend historical tales with modern treasure hunts.

Caribbean Adventures by Fred G. Baker is a collection of stories about Alex and his highly talented team. In Grenada, they easily steal the Caribbean Queen, an eighty-foot luxury yacht, using Chen's idea. In another endeavor, they rescue Mr. Wong's children while simultaneously sending a strong message that people of their caliber cannot be messed with. What would a German submarine be doing in the Caribbean? With Benson’s unusual logic, what will the crew discover about the Nazi’s treasure, and what happened toward the end of the Second World War? In The Barbuda Gold, the new Spanish colonies were being operated solely for the benefit of the crown. Precious gems and gold were all transported to Spain on a perilous journey. The sailors had to deal not only with storms but also with pirates. A ship captained by Alvarez is shipwrecked, and without any help, all the crew dies, but not before burying their treasure. Will Alex and his team find this treasure?

Some stories in this thought-provoking work also piqued my curiosity on historical events such as the colonization of the Americas and its impacts on native populations, and how Spanish and Swiss neutrality influenced events in the Second World War. Fred also ensured all events and places were vividly captured, which helped create a mental picture of what was happening. Honestly, I would love to see some of the stories turned into movies.
