a seaman's author.

I have read every book that Kent/Reeman have written. I love this audible version and look forward to listening to many more. 5 stars all round.

Good book, 'bang' on action a bit to much slush

Bolitho does it again, the 007 of the nineteenth century. History in fiction, can't beat it. You won't be disappointed.

boring

unfortunately this author spends too much time talking about Bolithos feelings which don't generally seem relevant to the story

if as I was you are looking for a period historical action this unfortunately we'll fall very short.
Earlier books most enjoyable this is a Mills and boon Romance very disappointing.
