Reviews
" Some novels have a built-in audience. Fans of the Thomas Kydd series, which has seen its hero go from a young wig maker to commander of a British naval vessel squaring off against Napoleon's invading forces, will flock to this eleventh installment and with good reason: the books, which incorporate actual historical events, are well-written mixtures of high-seas adventure and character-based drama. In this novel, which retells the Battle of Trafalgar from a new perspective, Kydd is instrumental in Horatio Nelson's victory in one of history's most famous sea battles. It's impossible not to enjoy the book—even newcomers to the series will be caught up in the spectacle, in Stockwin's colorful characters. Ideal for fans of Dewey Lambdin, Bernard Cornwell, and, of course, Patrick O'Brian ." —Booklist, "Some novels have a built-in audience.

He captures Georgian society and the closed world of a Royal Navy warship . . . [and] goes into action with swords drawn and cannons and carronades blasting." — Historical Novels Review

Amidst the chaos and bloodshed, Kydd and his shipmates must prove once and for all that the Royal Navy truly rules the seas.

- a***9 (75)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI would DEFINITELY purchase from this seller again. Seller might want to add more pics and better description because there was a tear on the back dust jacket that wasn’t mentioned. Could’ve happened during shipping so I’m not holding it against the seller. I fixed with tape on the inside of jacket. No harm/no foul. The seller had a more than generous price for this book + free shipping. NO complaints. Hence, I would purchase from this seller again without hesitation.
