À propos de cet audio

It is 1757, and the British navy is regrouping from a slow start to the Seven Years War.

A Spanish colonial governor and his family are pursued through the Caribbean by a pair of mysterious ships from the Dutch island of St. Eustatius. The British frigate Medina rescues the governor from his hurricane-wrecked ship, leading Captain Edward Carlisle and his first lieutenant George Holbrooke into a web of intrigue and half-truths. Are the Dutchmen operating under a letter of marque, or are they pirates, and why are they hunting the Spaniard? Only the diplomatic skills of Carlisle’s aristocratic wife, Lady Chiara, can solve the puzzle.

When Carlisle is injured, the young Holbrooke must grow up quickly. Under his leadership, Medina takes part in a one-sided battle with the French that will influence a young Horatio Nelson to choose the navy as a career.

The Jamaica Station follows the colonial post-captain and the Leeward Islands Squadron as the third of the Carlisle and Holbrooke naval adventures. The series will record the exploits of the two men through the Seven Years War and into the period of turbulent relations between Britain and her American colonies in the 1760s.

Great story thoroughly enjoyed. However the new narrator ain’t the best. It took a while to get used to him annunciating every consonant at the beginning of every word. His character voices just not that believable. Good flow though. I like the previous narrator and his more believable voices.

Great story.

Great historical fiction of the period in question with excellent coverage of the actual historical events. This is the third book in the story and you must read these books in order to appreciate the character development from book to book.

Enthralling Historical Fiction

Really low quality switch of narrator. Really disappointing to the extent I will probably drop this series. Wow what were they thinking. Such a let down compared to the amazing first two books.

Terrible naration change
