Bristol, 1618. Kit Faulkner is a young vagrant orphan, taking life as he finds it in the rough world of the docks. But after an encounter with two gentlemen, his fortunes are changed forever. Kit is taken aboard the Swallow, a large merchant ship partly owned by the two men, Captain Henry Mainwaring and Captain Gideon Strange, and they decide to train the boy for a life on the sea. And so begins the adventures of Kit Faulkner, which see him rise through the ranks and risk all in encounters with pirates and a French man-of-war. Meanwhile, England edges ever closer to civil war, and very soon Kit must choose which side he will fight for…

Very enjoyable. A little faster paced than most similar books (such as the Kidd series by Julian Stockywn). Tends to jump months or years at a time between periods of detailed story telling. Language suits the period. The style reminds me of Peter Simple by Frederick Marryat.

Very good, excellent narration

Loved it, well writen, classy and enlighteing! 16th century, warts and all tale of sailing in those days. Just what it says on the tin.

Flat characters, weak bitty story. Bought into Audible edition, which is worse. Disappointment all round.

Abysmal story poorly read
