Resumen del Editor

When a young boy and his father, a master gunner, leave their home in Devon they cannot know that piracy will become their life, for a while, at least. Set in the early days of the Spanish conquest of the Americas and with a young King Henry on the throne of England, this is a novel of discovery and riches, slavery and death. It is a time of innovation when guns changed from being firing tubes to cannons that could bring death and destruction. Above all, it is the story of a youth who, against the odds, becomes a man and, more, becomes a master gunner in his own right.

This is the first part of a series that will culminate in the heights of the Andes where the power of the Spanish comes up against the Incas in their mountain eyries.

very enjoyable

I will say do not expect the most unique experience in this book. but it is a very good and enjoyable historical fictional adventure story on a interesting period that has a interesting perspective.

also the voice acting is excellent in this book and very much a highlight of the book!

The reader was excellent.

The reader was excellent. Being Hispanic and obviously a Spanish speaker, his accents and pronunciations were authentic. On the whole I had no problem identifying the characters. The story seemed well researched and the fictional characters believable

Justifying genocide and rape is wrong

This is a story of genocide, rape and conquest. I love the authors prior works but he needs to reflect more on human beings and behavior
