This was by far the worst of the series I hope he returns to form for the penultimate book. It would be a real shame to have followed so avidly and be disappointed at the end

Disappointed

I have purchased and listened to all previous Thomas Kydd books. This was my least favourite and was a hard listen. I'm no book critic all I can say was the whole book was underwhelming and i hope the next book returns back to good old-fashioned story telling.

I have to continue the journey.

Missed this coming out. Great storyline. Stockwin get the introductory particular dismissed quickly and there follows a swashbuckling story in the usual naval ‘Flasman’ vein. Already waiting for the next instalment!

Much anticipated and well delivered

The plot over the last couple of books has not been at its best, I’ve been an avid follower of Tom Kydd and Nicholas Renzi, but it’s starting to feel like a chore to get through the story, I appreciate they’re getting through the years (war), but where’s the excitement?! Even Persephone & Cecelia seem to have lost their character!

Following along in the hope that our dynamic duo can find their way again!

Disappointing yet again…

I've listened to the whole series and loved them but this book was dreadful. There was no real thread to the book, which is essentially a collection of short stories that don't relate.

I hope the next book returns to the Tom Kydd of old.
