Sinopsis
With Kydd, Julian Stockwin introduced us to a young wig-maker from Guildford who was kidnapped and pressed into duty with the tempestuous crew of the Duke William battleship. Now, Thomas Paine Kydd is back—with a vengeance—in the latest installment of Stockwin’s thrilling naval adventure series.
Artemis is the 18th-century crack frigate that Kydd and sea-mate Nicholas Renzi are set to sail all the way to the fabled Far East. In this great age of fighting sailing ships, Kydd’s voyage promises to be a perilous undertaking. But not even shipwreck, mutiny, or a confrontation with a mighty French frigate manages to thwart Artemis and her crew. It’s only when Kydd receives an urgent message from home—one that threatens to cut short his career and trap him on shore forever—that Artemis’s real journey begins.
Filled with mesmerizing suspense and vivid details of Napoleonic-era seafaring, Artemis is classic, page-turning storytelling at its best.
