    About this audiobook

    Thomas Kydd is enjoying the recognition and favour of his fellow officers when his ship, Tenacious, is summoned to join Horatio Nelson's taskforce on an urgent reconnaissance mission.

    Kydd's newfound ambition fuels his desire to be at the forefront of the hunt. But with power comes responsibility; with responsibility, accountability. Kydd will face his greatest challenge ever amidst bloodstained seas.

    And defeat will mean humiliation - or death.

      Yet again I have learned about battles of the Napoleonic Wars I never would have known if not for the Stockwin - Kydd books! In the stories of Tenacious, Lt. Thomas Kydd travels the Mediterranean, following Vice-Admeral H. Nelson to the Nile River in order to abort Napoleon Bonaparte's attempt to control that strategic river via his navy. This is a battle I never knew happened - as well as the battle for Acre, which was fought on land by British Navy personnel along side native groups to secure the land from Bonaparte's undefeated land troops. Besides these two huge battles, which are described vibrantly through the eyes of Mr. Kydd, there are smaller battles during the progression of the British ships through the Mediterranean.
    • 5/5
      Outstanding entry in an excellent series. Good story telling enriched by sufficient technical details to engage the Age of Fighting Sail aficionados without overwhelming the less inclined. Hero growing and learning from mental introspection and physical trial and error. Penetrative looks, via Renzi's "trials by father", into social and economic issues of the day.
    • 5/5
      Exciting account of naval service during the Napoleonic Wars. Worth the time and enjoyment.
