I enjoyed this series a lot. This book is the last one I will read in the series, even though there is one last book, an unfinished one.

This series is well worth reading, even though it's written in such a way that it's harder to read than say the other series' on the French and English wars, like Hornblower or Delaney or Kydd or Bolitho. Bolitho is my favorite by far

Well worth reading, but you have to read the series back to back, as though it were one book.


Triggers: Less recreational drugs than prior books, some sex, lots of violence (it's a war book). Not much 'rock and roll' (or chamber music)
