To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A lithe brown body, stripped naked save for the dark kamkapula turban on the head, darted here and there among the scattered groups of the crew, thrust- ing with lightning strokes the heavy parang, or jungle- knife, which gleamed in the moonlight as the man ran. Rooted with horror I watched four men drop bleeding to the deck as the madman rushed wildly through the scattering crew. Then, turning quickly, I saw I was alone and made a dash for the poop in the stern, which I leapt and swung round t...o see the man pause for a moment. Then, apparently spotting me, he gave a bound in that direction as the door on the little deck-house amidships slid open and the figure of the little Paranak master appeared. He had something in his upraised hand which I thought at first was a revolver and flung myself face downwards. A moment later I saw I was mistaken. Something glittered for a split second as it streaked in mid-air and the crazed Malay fell forward on his face, transfixed between the shoulder- blades by a long, straight-bladed kris !
