Summary

"When a man escapes alive, he has a chance to survive."

In the unforgiving docklands of east London, young orphan William must do all he can to survive. Like the other ‘wharf rats’, his life of petty crime is not a choice; it’s a necessity. But William’s misdeeds won’t remain hidden for long. When the boy unknowingly steals from a murderous pirate captain, escape is his only option. He is forced to stow away and begin a life that will take him to the far side of the world; a life as a soldier of the East India Company.

It’s funny, I recently commented to someone that a book set within the East India company is needed and this has beat me to it. Enjoyable book, nice balance of explanation and action, and good pace. Hope there’s several more.

Narration is good, sounds a lot like Martin Freeman despite it not being.

Enjoyable listen
