IN NEW SERIES
Adventure, passion, revolution and love for nature: these are the colors
of Sandokan, the event series that gives life to the immortal character
created by Emilio Salgari. The series goes to the roots of a myth,
exploring the origins of the Malaysian Tiger and telling his trajectory
from a simple adventurer to the prince of the pirates. In Borneo, a
tropical paradise inhabited by the native tribes of Dayak, but dominated
by the ruthless law of the colonialist British, Sandokan is a pirate
who lives by the day: he fights only for himself and for his crew,
including the trusted Yanez. But his life changes when he meets
Marianna, the beautiful daughter of Labuan’s British consul during a
raid. It is the beginning of an impossible love story between two
similar souls: Marianna, of European and noble blood, but with the wild
spirit of those who grew up in a tropical paradise, and Sandokan, pirate
and adventurer, who without knowing it carries within himself the blood
of ancient warrior kings. On their trail will be the legendary pirate
hunter Lord James Brooke, who will stop at nothing to capture Sandokan
and win Mariana’s heart.
The protagonists will fight for themselves and for their love, but soon
they will understand that they are part of a much greater story: that of
a people who fight for freedom and for the salvation of unspoiled
nature... And this people, the Dayak, seek a leader who can save them.
For this reason Sandokan will be called to be much more than a pirate:
he will have to become the legendary Tiger of Malaysia.
I’m compelled to give anything with Can in it a try!
