Reviews"Fans of fast-paced adventure will get their fill with this book." --"The Historical Novels Review" on the Kydd Sea Adventures series, "Likable Tom and his shipmates make a snug fit in that page-turning Forester and O'Brian tradition--thanks to retired Royal Navy author Stockwin." --"Kirkus Reviews" on the Kydd Sea Adventures series, "Stockwin's richly detailed . . . portrait of life on ship and shore in Britain's oceanic empire is engrossing. He writes evocatively of shipboard routine, the panic and confusion of combat, and the terrifying approach of a storm at sea, and he knows how to stage enthralling action scenes." --"Publishers Weekly" on the Kydd Sea Adventures series
