Following in the wake of Hornblower and Patrick O'Brian ... there
is enough to satisfy the most belligerent armchair warrior:
cutlasses, cannibals, as well as a hunt for buried treasure. All
this plus good taut writing gets Peter Smalley's series off to a
flying start' Sunday Telegraph
'Salute a new master of the sea. Smalley is intending to
appropriate the capacious mantle of the late Patrick O'Brian and,
on the strength of this book, it should prove a snug fit. Smalley
has written a real page-turner, engrossing and enthralling, stuffed
with memorable characters. Highly recommended.' Daily Express
