Tyranny’s Bloody Standard
By J D Davies
Legendary warriors, devastating sea battles, and a chance, finally, for vengeance.
After a daring escape from a British prison, Philippe Kermorvant returns to
France and gains command of a frigate in the Mediterranean, where France is
trying to rebuild its decimated fleet.
Facing overwhelming odds, the fleet is forced to flee for refuge to a fortified bay.
The prospect of an interminable blockade looms, but Philippe is given leave from
his command to meet an enigmatic young general, who has a mission for him.
What follows is a shocking murder, a siege, a whirlwind romance and a duel to the death on the high seas, as Philippe contends with threats from every side. And amidst all this chaos, a terrible face from his past threatens to uproot everything that he has built for himself.
A fascinating naval adventure of the Age of Sail told from the French perspective, perfect for fans of Hornblower and Sharpe.
