Gunboat Number 14: reviews

Gunboat Number 14

It's 1808 and Sweden is at war with Russia. The war is not going well. On land, the Swedish army is retreating continuously and all that stands between the Russians and the Swedish mainland are the gunboats of the inshore fleet. The sea war amongst the islands of the Finnish and Swedish archipelagos is a special kind of war, fought in open boats by badly equipped men without proper training. Fighting the weather as much as the Russians, Lieutenant Johan Kuhlin commands a small squadron of three gunboats on special duty. During the short and wet summer, he learns that an independent command isn't all glory and that spies can be more dangerous than Russian guns.

Reviews

Miss Anna has got her first reviews on Amazon.com, and they are nice ones, too. If you've read the book, don't hesitate to write a few words on Amazon, or in a comment here. It is always good to know what the readers think, even if it isn't all glory!

February 2010 news

The revised 2010 edition has now been available at amazon.com for a few weeks. It's the same story of course, but the editing is better and the book is only 210 pages, which brought the price down to 18 USD.

Accordingly, the e-book at smashwords is now the new edition. It is still free, though.

Also, I'd like to quote a reader's comment which made me smile.

"I loved his book, Gunboat Number 14 - check it out - I dare you not to adore the lovely Anna, and will fight you if you don't."

A short review...

If you liked Patrick O'Brian's naval war stories, but wished there was a little more sex sprinkled through them, Gunboat # 14 is the book for you.
