À propos de cet audio
A simple mission. A battle for their lives.
It is 1667, and the war between the Dutch and the English continues apace. Sir Francis Courtney, his son Hal and their crew are carried around the southern tip of the African colonies by the good ship Lady Edwina, licensed to attack and seize the treasure-laden ships of the Dutch East India company. When they capture a Dutch trader and hold the passengers to ransom, Sir Francis hopes only for a good price and a small sense of satisfaction.
But this is unlawful territory they sail in. An unexpected betrayal will mean the men on board will face greater peril than they have ever faced before - and many good men may never see home again....
A Courtney Series adventure - book 1 in the Birds of Prey trilogy.

A colonial epic adventure
Once again I am wowed by Smith’s mastery of tale and prose. This captivating epic delivers thrilling highs and crushing, even gruesome, lows.

Great story, don’t give up with the early audio
The audio at the beginning is pretty poor (muffled and slurry) but then becomes clear and gets much, much better.

This story would make an awesome TV Series!
Very engaging story with many sub plots and settings. The main character changes and matures a lot during the course of this story. Tons of action too!

Great adventure story!
Colourful characters and a rich story. Characters are interesting and deep. You can almost smell the sea-spray and the canon smoke. A great read in the mold of the true classic adventure novel!

Couldn’t finish
The narrator of this book speaks and reads under his breath, impossible to hear most of what he says. I listen to books while driving on highways for a living and this has been first time that I was unable to finish a book because I could not hear most of what was read.
