Sent to rescue English hostages held in Italy, Ramage unexpectedly discovers his missing wife in 2nd set of hostages I am coming to the end of this series. Each book is as interesting as the last... yes there are references to previous books in this series but it is done in a way that is not offense to the reader. Pope's uses these references to past books as a way to have minor characters in the story comment on their past adventures from their own point of view. These are not 3rd party observations...they are used to enhance the book as they give an insight into thoughts of minor characters in the book. Another rescue mission, in French held Italy. More hostages than expected and in the wrong place. Again, creative solutions to awkward problems including an inept and belligerent general. Excellent series, sometimes based upon actual events. Always a good story with interesting characters, puzzling quandaries and sometimes quirky solutions. Age of sail tyros should read early in their literary questing for his knowledge and insights into fighting, sailing and British Navy life during these quite fascinating times. Many set in the Caribbean where Pope lived for most of his writing career enabling him to provide very helpful maps, not often found in fiction, for his scenarios. De admiraliteit heeft Ramage opdracht gegeven om terug te keren naar de Middelandse Zee. Deze keer niet om de franse vloot te achtervolgen, maar om een groep invloedrijke britse gevangenen te redden die door Napoleon worden gegijzeld. Spionnen van de admiraliteit denken te weten waar de gevangenen worden vastgehouden, maar Ramage betwijfeld of deze informatie wel juist is. En aan de onbekende, vijandelijke kust van Toscane krijgen Ramage en de mannen van de Calypso te maken met hun meest gevaarlijke avontuur. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
