It is 1780, and 17-year-old Alan Lewrie is a brash, rebellious young libertine. So much so that his callous father believes a bit of naval discipline will turn the boy around. Fresh aboard the tall-masted Ariadne, Midshipman Lewrie heads for the war-torn Americas, finding - rather unexpectedly - that he is a born sailor, equally at home with the randy pleasures of the port and the raging battles on the high seas. But in a hail of cannonballs comes a bawdy surprise.

This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, Royal Navy, and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against the thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war in Nelson's navy are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the road of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.

Intriguing storyline
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I am a fan of all Nineteen Century sailing stories....Aubry+Maturn, Ramage, Bilitho, Dewey Lambert, Hornblower, etc......this well written book (performed by Rodska an excellent narrator).....is right up there with the best of the group....a little bit of a unexpected yarn....that of a landsman beginning a naval career.....but with enough twists and turns to make it interesting....I will go on to the next in the series

An Excellent Tale
Where does Kydd rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This story is a nice variant of the English naval fiction of the Napoleonic age. Most of those stories are told from the perspective of an officer, usually the captain. Telling the story from the perspective of a pressed landsman is an interesting variation.

What did you love best about Kydd?
Interesting plot. You see life from a sailor's, not officer's, point of view.
What other book might you compare Kydd to and why?
Dewy Lambdin's series - although Lambdin is better.

Thoroughly Entertaining!
Would you listen to Kydd again? Why?
Yes, I am anxious to start book two.
What did you like best about this story?
The adventure was exciting and engrossing - reels you in and keeps it interesting. Not too much "fluff", which seems to be prevalent in several of the books I've listened to.
What does Christian Rodska bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Excellent voices - great interpretation.
Who was the most memorable character of Kydd and why?
Thomas Kydd is the main character of course, and naturally the most memorable.
Any additional comments?
I enjoyed this book a great deal - but be forewarned - it contains a lot of sailing/nautical nomenclature of the period, and it does not go into what any of it is. As I was not familiar with those terms it made it a bit challenging to follow at times. Also, one other small criticism is that sometimes the scenes (or particular parts of the story) seem to get truncated leaving the listener wondering what happened. Don't let these things scare you off though, I'm a tough critic, and I enjoyed this book very much.

The Enlisted Version of Ramage, Hornblower. And Auvrey
I have avidly consumed the Aubrey/Maturin series, the Ramage series, and the Hornblower series. This opening book promises something similar, but is critically different insofar as the protagonist is a pressed "foremast Jack," rather than the captain (or cimmander). I enjoyed this book and, as in the Hirnblower series, Rodska was an excellent narrator.

A little slow
It’s a good sea story, but drags at times. Lots of nautical terminology that can be hard to follow. It is a good book to get lost in. Excellent narration. Main character is not to be confused with the pirate William Kidd. This is not a pirate story.

What A Pleasant Surprise!
I began my sojourn into the world of English tall warships years ago with Patrick Obrien, then had to move on to C. S. Forester and now I have discovered, with joy, a new series of equal authenticity, imagination and eloquence in the Thomas Kydd series by Julian Stockwin.
Thank you Julian for allowing me to escape again into an incredible world that never ceases to amaze me. I am now thoroughly hooked, after finishing the first four books in the series.
All I can say is, please keep writing Julian!! Charlie Wilson

The Launch of a Top-Notch Series
This is where it all start for Thomas Payne Kydd, a wigmaker from Guildford who is press-ganged into service with Her Majesty's Navy. What ensues from here is a long-running series of genuine quality by an author who not only writes a thrilling yarn with engaging characters but who also knows his subject in great depth.
This novel introduces Kydd in the hardest of circumstances as a pressed man and follows him as he struggles to come to terms with a life at sea and the brutal rules that apply to it. It also introduces the highly enigmatic Nicholas Renzi.
As a first book in the series it is not without its issues. The naval terminology is borne from deep knowledge but can confuse the layman (like me) at times. The book is fairly derivative of other naval historical fiction and the characters clearly need more investment before we see them become fully rounded. Though in fairness, the character of a pressed man would be either one of a defeated man from the start or would take time to develop.
This may sound slightly critical but peruse the reviews of the rest of the series and it's easy to see the quality that Stockwin brings to bear. The book itself is still highly enjoyable. What is undoubted though is that Christian Rodska hits the right tone right from the very beginning and does a superb job of the narration.
This has become one of my favourite series in the genre. If the above seems critical and you like this kind of fiction I would say don't be put off. This is just the beginning and when all is said it's a more than decent start!

Hooked
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes I would..
Exciting start got me hooked, it is much like Hornblower, also Rodska is perfect for the reading. Although when he is narrating he sometimes uses the character voice, mildly amusing but does not spoil the feel of the storyline.......
Who was your favorite character and why?
Undecided, one of my favourite characters was killed of too early...
What does Christian Rodska bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
He brings life and images too all the characters, he is why I went from Hornblower to Kydd, I am Ex-Army so a nautical novel was far from my liking, but now I am hooked....
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Knowing some of the characters are in future books it is hard to feel too much when a character is going through a possible hazardous situation.
Any additional comments?
Looking forward to my next book.

OK beginnings
I am a huge Aubrey/Maturin fan and this books main strength is to approach life at sea from the perspective of a foremast Jack.
It is technically as good as any but not polished and full of plot twists that make you shake your head.
The performance is very good with excellent characterisation and I am hoping book two will rely more on polished story telling than convenient occurrences.

The story was very good a bit like a Sharpe of the Sea. If you have read Hornblower you will enjoy the setting and characters. However the excellent narration by Christian Rodska makes listening an absolute pleasure. I just hope the exciting storyline is maintained through the other novels. Starting the next novel straight away.
