Winter 1793 - Master and Commander Charles Hayden's orders are to return to the ill-fated frigate, HMS Themis. Placed in temporary command, he is to join the escort for the last convoy of the season - braving the wintry seas. Hayden's uncanny knack for attracting the attention of the French navy sees the Themis thrown back into action only hours out of port. Soon, Hayden's captaincy and military skill are stretched to their utmost as he finds himself at the vanguard of this brutal clash of empires.©2010 Sean Thomas Russell (P)2010 W F Howes Ltd Action & Adventure Historical Mystery Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Mythology Greek Mythology Fiction Ancient Greece

I got this book for my husband but started listening by mistake. Glad I did, exciting descriptive stuff. Felt I was there looking over the Captain's shoulder. From Plymouth to the Med if trouble was to be had the ship found and dealt with it. All the time, will he won't he be given the command? We are left hanging at the end, so many unanswered questions. When is the next book coming out? Will we get the answers? I cannot wait.

A Battle Won by Sean Russell is a great read set in the pre Napoleon French Revolutionary Era when Britain was invited to occupy Toulon by the Royalist forces there. The story covers the return of the revolutionary French who see the Navy off but are not able to control the Mediterrean due to the presence of Hood's fleet. A book you won't want to stop once you begin listening to it.
