His exploits echo with the bustle of crowded ports and the crash of
naval warfare...It is 1780 and seventeen-year-old Alan Lewrie is a
brash young libertine with a head full of dreams. When he is found
in bed with the wrong woman, he is forced to leave his profligacy
behind for a new life at sea. Though sickness and hard labour await
him aboard the tall-masted Ariadne, Lewrie finds himself gradually
adapting to the world of a midshipman. But as he heads for the
war-torn Americas into a hail of cannonballs, will he ever catch
wind of the plot brewing against him back at home? The first Alan
Lewrie novel, this action-packed naval adventure is perfect for
fans of Patrick O'Brian, Julian Stockwin and C.S. Forester Praise
for The King's Coat 'You could get addicted to this series.
Easily.' New York Times Book Review 'The best naval series since C.
S. Forester . . . Recommended.' Library Journal 'Fast-moving. . . A
hugely likeable hero, a huge cast of sharply drawn supporting
characters: there's nothing missing. Wonderful stuff.' Kirkus
