Sandokan is a fictional late 19th-century pirate created by Italian author Emilio Salgari. His adventures first appeared in publication in 1883. Sandokan is the hero of 11 adventure novels. Within the series, Sandokan is known throughout the South China Sea as the "Tiger of Malaya".
==Sandokan series== Emilio Salgari wrote several novels telling the adventures of Sandokan and Yanez, two of his most legendary creations. They are introduced in The Tigers of Mompracem, which portrays their struggle against Dutch and British. In many sequels, they fight against James Brooke, a white-skin adventurer, self-appointed as Rajah of Sarawak; they also move to India to smash down the Thugs, a notorious band of stranglers devoted to the goddess Kali.
