Until the Sea Shall Give Up Her Dead

Adventures of Charles Hayden, Book 4

De: S. Thomas Russell

Narrado por: Daniel Philpott

Charles Hayden returns in the thrilling new naval adventure from best-selling author S. Thomas Russell, today’s "Patrick O’Brian for a new generation" (Kirkus Reviews). Master and Commander Charles Hayden has received fresh orders that take him and the HMS Themis to the Caribbean, with instructions to meddle with French shipping to the colonies. While en route, they rescue two Spanish castaways who beg for help fleeing from a vengeful family situation - Hayden agrees to do what he can, though it’s soon clear his two new guests aren’t exactly what they seem. Arriving in the lawless Caribbean seas, Hayden and Themis find themselves torn between the forces of reckless English captains, conflicts between royalist and revolutionary Frenchmen, and Spanish ships that are enemies to both England and France. And when someone very dear to him is kidnapped, Hayden may sacrifice everything in a reckless pursuit to save her...

Well construced, but not that exiting

I wish there was a more naval batte, as this is quite entertaining.

Good Book - performance lacking

The book was good, although maybe not quite as strong as the earlier 3 in this series. The reader, however, was not as good as the reader on the first three. His voice was not as strong (I often had to turn the sound nearly to max to catch the action) and his accents not as well done or believable. I asked myself if it was just that I was used to the previous reader, but I do not believe that was the issue. It spoiled the book somewhat for me.

I would still recommend the book to anyone.

Much better after a slow start

Overall ok, but not the best of the 4. Starts slowly, but picks up after Chapter 13. I FF thru the ever increasing navel gazing of Hayden. Overall, still worth the listen.

Love this series

My only question for Mr. Russell is, when can we expect book five in this well-written series?

Exceptional

Well written story line. The author has a wide understanding of the ways of the sailing of the tall ships.
