Story
It is said that a man is grown by his past, and so it was with William Brewer. Before he took command of HMS Defiant in a hurricane and before he hunted pirates in HMS Revenge, Brewer endured a crucible of fire that molded him into the legend he became. Fresh from the tutelage of Napoleon Bonaparte on St. Helena, Brewer signs on for a cruise under Captain Bush in HMS Lydia to the Mediterranean to battle the Barbary Pirates.

Winter 1793. Master and Commander Charles Hayden’s orders are to return to the ill-fated frigate, HMS Themis. Placed in temporary command, he is to join the escort for the last convoy of the season - braving the wintry seas. Hayden's uncanny knack for attracting the attention of the French navy sees the Themis thrown back into action only hours out of port. Soon, Hayden's captaincy and military skill are stretched to their utmost....

It is 1780, and 17-year-old Alan Lewrie is a brash, rebellious young libertine. So much so that his callous father believes a bit of naval discipline will turn the boy around. Fresh aboard the tall-masted Ariadne, Midshipman Lewrie heads for the war-torn Americas, finding - rather unexpectedly - that he is a born sailor, equally at home with the randy pleasures of the port and the raging battles on the high seas. But in a hail of cannonballs comes a bawdy surprise.

It was an age of empire, an age of contrast, and an age of dramatic change - and one which would determine the destinies of nations as well as of men. Captain Philip Blackwood of the Royal Marines rejoins his ship, HMS Audacious, in August of 1850, anxious to get back into action. "Per Mare - Per Terram" is the marines' motto. In the torturous heat of Africa, where they are sent to stamp out the remaining strongholds of slavery, and later, in the bitter war of the Crimea, Philip Blackwood and his men learn to obey it without question.

Summary
Admiral Horatio Hornblower has given Commander William Brewer captaincy of the captured pirate sloop El Dorado.
Now under sail as the HMS Revenge, its new name suits Brewer's frame of mind perfectly. He lost many of his best men in the engagement that seized the ship, and his new orders are to hunt down the pirates who have been ravaging the trade routes of the Caribbean sea. But Brewer will face more than one challenge before he can confront the pirate known as El Diabolito. His best friend and ship's surgeon, Dr. Spinelli, is taking dangerous solace in alcohol as he wrestles with demons of his own.
The new purser, Mr. Allen, may need a lesson in honest accounting. Worst of all, Hornblower has requested that Brewer take on a young ne'er-do-well, Noah Simmons, to remove him from a recent scandal at home. At 23, Simmons is old to be a junior midshipman, and as a wealthy man's son he is unaccustomed to working, taking orders, or suffering privations.
William Brewer will need to muster all his resources to ready his crew for their confrontation with the Caribbean's most notorious pirate. In the process, he'll discover the true price of command.

A superb sequel
As wonderfully fast paced as the first book Brewer's Revenge delivers action swiftly and concisely. For me, there is nothing to criticize. Keffer simply knows how to write a great nautical novel with no whimsy to distract from the gripping plot. I truly cannot wait for the rest of the series to arrive on Audible.
Nigel Peever once again gives a knockout performance. It was brilliant to hear him reprise his role as the nervous Dr. Spinelli alongside old characters and new.
In short, if you enjoyed the first book you will equally enjoy the second.

Excellent Production
Writing sequels to another author's books is a risky thing to do, or so it seems to me. Every reader (or listener) will be comparing the writing style to that of the original, and the chances of fully measuring up are close to zero. Even so, this is a well-plotted and well-told story. I enjoyed it very much, though not, perhaps, as well as I liked the original Hornblower series by C S Forester. The audio production itself is exquisitely well done. The narration with believable sound effects quite distracted me from making unfavorable comparisons between the writing styles of James Keefer and C S Forester. I do not hesitate to recommend Brewer's Revenge. I look forward to listening to other audio books in this series.

A Wonderful Adventure
I had a friend who recommended that I listen to a book narrated by Nigel Peever. I checked out his narrations and this story instantly grabbed my attention. This audiobook is enhanced with sound effects. I quite enjoyed them and made the story more "3D." Peever has such a range of distinct voices that you feel you are listening to a multi cast production. I already have another book of his lined up because he is so talented.
The story itself was fabulous. It was fast paced from start to finish and an amazing Caribbean adventure, with pirates. If you love historical fiction, Pirates of the Caribbean or similar stories, I believe you will really enjoy this book. I only found out after listening that it was a second in a series. I had no idea. It reads like a complete stand alone. If that is your hold up with trying it, do not let that stop you. This story and the narration are very well matched.
I received a copy of this audiobook at my request, and I have voluntarily left this review.

Brewer Takes Us on Another Exciting Adventure
The fun on the high seas continue Whereas I thought the first book was to layout the world and the people playing in it, this one really pushed the plot and had a lot more excitement. Everything that worked great in the first book was amped up for a much more action packed adventure.. This book stands alone just fine, but you would prefer this one much more reading them in order. I’m really excited to see what more is ahead for Captain Brewer and the rest of the crew.
The crew is back and I enjoyed all of them more than I did the first time. They continue to develop nicely and provide a spectacular character driven story. Their dialogue was great and I enjoyed being a part of all of their conversations. Brewers romantic interest was especially interesting and I look forward to hearing out that pans out. I really hope that the action they face moving forward continues to intensify because I really enjoyed fighting the pirates, firing the cannons, and swabbing the decks with the crew again.
This is a fantastic production. It came off as a full production with sound effects and different people playing each character, however there is only one narrator. Nigel has a huge range of character voices and did an amazing job. He doesn’t just read the words, but acts out the entire story. I felt like I was listening to a play enfold before me. His narrations are truly a step above all the others. The background sound effects really added to the overall story and I was able to picture myself on the ship. I can’t imagine the energy and effort that was needed to put into this narration, but you owe it to yourself to listen.
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

A Wonderful Adventure
This was a wonderful listen of high seas adventure! Know that this is an enhanced story, meaning it has sound effects. If you don't like that type of audiobook then pass this one by, though you'll be missing out. However if you enjoy audiobooks with enhancements then you need to hear this one! There's action, adventure, battle and a plenty of nautical nostalgia. The narration by Nigel Peever was awesomely done. I love Mr. Peever's narrations and this one does not disappoint! His sound effects, voices and emotions truly make this a highly entertaining escape from life. This is a wonderful listen that I will be recommending to my friends.

excellent performance of a sea adventure
First off, I want to give this type of audiobook a big thumbs up. There is a nostalgic feeling to this that harkens one back to the days of radio dramas. This is NOT a straight reading but a reading performance complete with sound effects and distinctive voices. If you haven't tried this type of audiobook, I highly recommend it.
This book is a great match to this type of format as the historical sea adventure melds really well with a performance versus a straight reading. I haven't read the first book in this series but I didn't have any problem knowing immediately what was going on. James Keffer writes a solid adventure but also fleshes out the personalities of the characters involved.
Nigel Peever is a highly skilled narrator who is very well suited to this type of audiobook. I think he would do well in a straight reading also but he really shines in this full performance format. He is in my top five narrators of all time. I admit, I'm a big fan of each character having their own voice and Peever excels at this.

This was more than just an audiobook. It was a full performance including sound effects and music when appropriate. The narrator did an awesome job delineating the various characters which not only consisted of male and female but also British, Cuban, French and other noticeable accents. I am still trying to figure out how he managed the group responses.

This narration is like a radio stage play as I used to listen to as a boy in the' 50s. Very nicely done and the story never dragged. I am looking forward to the next "episode" of Brewer.
