Summary

When a training mission goes wrong, Sublieutenant Tom Thrush finds his brand-new career hanging by a thread.

Desperate to redeem himself, he makes a rash wager - he’ll lead a squad in a mock attack, boarding and capturing the visiting gunboat Diana in record time. He hasn’t got a chance, and to make matters worse, there’s a visiting admiral watching the attack from her yacht. Tom, desperate, sneaks aboard the Diana through a gun port - and stumbles into the middle of something much worse than a training exercise. There’s a traitor aboard the Diana, planning to blow the admiral’s yacht out of the sky.

Suddenly Tom is fighting for something much bigger than a foolish bet. If he loses, the admiral dies - and so does Tom.

OOH

Absolutely perfect intro into series. The quick switch of pace made it gripping. Fastest 40 minutes in my life.

Great action, but WHY? Does not make sense in the series. Is there a book I missed?

Good appetizer...

... to start delving into the series.

Pacing and narration were pretty good, but this wasn't long enough to provide any substantial depth.

Boys own in the worst way possibly for 6 year olds

Juvenile rubbish and a waste of time bad stereotypes and worse dialogue gives sci fi a bad reputation

Quick fire action

A quick full on action packed 40 minutes. Story is well written and narrated, not sure where it fits into this series but really enjoyable.
