Recenzii

As an O'Brien groupie myself, I began to read suspiciously... I was soon turning over the pages almost indecently fast... Roll on, the promised adventures of Kydd and Renzi on "the legendary crack frigate Artemis".
Stockwin weaves a fast- paced tale that brings a whiff of the sea and gunpowder. Recommended.
gripping...Rich in action and full of interesting characters, this thrilling novel leaves you in awe of the 18th- century seaman.
impressively full of life. I was soon turning over the pages indecently fast.
