About this product

Product Information

1665. The land is at war, but conspiracies against King Charles II are rife. Captain Matthew Quinton finds himself thrust unexpectedly into the midst of the deadliest of them when he is given command of a vast and ancient man-of-war. Despite contending with scheming ministers of state, a raw, recalcitrant crew and an alleged curse on the ship, Quinton sails against the might of the Dutch fleet. Meanwhile plague devastates London, Matthew's family and friends battle an enemy in their midst and a mysterious figure from the past returns to oppose the foes of both the king and the Quintons. The shattering climax of The Blast That Tears the Skies sees Matthew and his crew fight for their lives at the heart of the Battle of Lowestoft, one of the greatest sea-fights in the entire age of sail, before he faces the astonishing truth about his own and his family's history. AUTHOR: J D Davies was born in Wales and now lives in Bedfordshire. He is the foremost expert on the seventeenth-century navy and recently published Pepys' Navy which won the 2009 Samuel Pepys Award. REVIEWS: 'Mr O'Brian would have heartily approved of the finely shaded characters, excellent plotting, gut-clenching action and immaculate attention to period naval detail that Davies supplies. Superb!' - Angus Donald, author of The Outlaw Chronicles 'J D Davies's depiction of Restoration England and the British navy is impeccable, his characters truly live and breathe, and the plot kept me in suspense . . . I could not recommend it more' - Edward Chupack, author of Silver THE QUINTON SERIES THUS FAR: 9781906964290 Gentleman Captain 9781906964269 The Mountain of Gold 9781908699268 The Blast that Tears the Skies 9781908699275 The Lion of Midnight
