VOYAGE OF REPRISAL

by Kevin J. Glynn

About the Book

An English sea-captain sailing to plunder a Spanish treasure fleet faces the elements, internal discord and an armada of war galleons lurking in his path. If he prevails, rewards and retribution await in the wilds of the New World.

Voyage of Reprisal draws on the author’s extensive research to present a careful reconstruction of life at sea aboard an Elizabethan war galleon. Her crew forms a microcosm of renaissance society. Charismatic characters come alive; from crude sailors to arrogant lords. The pains, joys, sorrows, and hopes of the age are explored aboard an English privateer.

The author was motivated to write this sea story after reading historical nonfiction books about the age of exploration, such as Samuel Eliot Morison's "The Great Explorers," the Hakluyt Society book series and primary research documents from both English and Spanish sources. Besides the historicity and authenticity of the book which provides a full immersion into the past, the author carefully crafted a plot designed to keep the reader engaged. Readers have attested they could not put the book down, due to the character development, conflict and a plot line containing surprising twists and turns.

This nautical fiction/ historical fiction book fall under a series called Elizabethan Sea Dogs which takes place during the age of sail in the 16th Century Renaissance period. They are epic sea tales, filled with intrigue, action and adventure, personal conflicts, and war at sea.
