Publisher's Synopsis
Hailing from Cornwall in England in the 1700's, Captain Robert Osborne of the flagship "Hyperion", a man-of-war with 120 guns, sails the seven seas unafraid. Very much in the mold of the prototype Buccaneer, Captain Sir Henry Morgan, he is both a bold leader and a gentleman. He has earned the respect and loyalty of his officers and men and together they have faced every challenge. Mother Nature, the High Seas, the Barbary Pirates, and the French and Spanish Navies, all have been unable to best him and his brave fleet. Now he faces the greatest challenge of all. He has chosen to play the dangerous role of "Kingmaker" and help put the secret son of France's late King upon the throne. Phillipe du Bourbon would be King, but failure means death. Feel the suspense and tension in officers and common sailors. See behind the fine uniforms and tall ships to the families who wait nervously at home. Feel the sweltering heat of the Mediterranean and the mist of the bow as it plows through the waves of the cold Atlantic. Raise your voice for adventure and enjoy a new adventure!
