Özet
 The year is 1793 and Europe is ablaze with war…
Thomas Kydd, a young wig-maker from Guildford, is seized by the press gang, to be a part of the crew of the battle ship Royal William. The ship sails immediately and Kydd has to learn the harsh realities of shipboard life fast. Despite all that he goes through, he comes to admire the skills and courage of the seamen - taking up the challenge himself to become a true sailor.©2001 Julian Stockwin Action & Adventure Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Kurgu Sea Adventures War & Military Macera

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes I would..

Exciting start got me hooked, it is much like Hornblower, also Rodska is perfect for the reading. Although when he is narrating he sometimes uses the character voice, mildly amusing but does not spoil the feel of the storyline.......

Who was your favorite character and why?

Undecided, one of my favourite characters was killed of too early...

What does Christian Rodska bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

He brings life and images too all the characters, he is why I went from Hornblower to Kydd, I am Ex-Army so a nautical novel was far from my liking, but now I am hooked....

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Knowing some of the characters are in future books it is hard to feel too much when a character is going through a possible hazardous situation.

Any additional comments?

Looking forward to my next book.

Great story, historical fiction at its best. And narrated brilliantly as usual by the same voice that read Hornblower which I loved. On to the next one hopefully if they’ve got it!…

My favourite series is the Aubrey-Maturin series and I can see this will be a good contender, from the pov of a pressed sailor and less idealistic of the conditions on ship, very interesting and a good story too.

Really good
