As far as I know, this is the last in the Captain Alatriste series to be translated into English. Unlike the previous volume, The Chevalier in the Yellow Doublet, this book contains none of the complex intrigues that mark the series, the story of a noble Spanish soldier in the early seventeenth century. Instead its just one fight after another in the seventeenth-century Mediterranean, against Moors, English, Italians, and Ottomans by land and sea. Lots of seventeenth-century flavor.
