The demand from other Authors to be listed on this site has exceeded my expectations.
I have therefore added a new site [please click here]
If you are experiencing problems in locating a copy then please search the book title on Google and see the other retailers who have it.
The book despite being from myself as a ‘new author’ has been accepted in ‘The Red Room’.
This may mean very little to many people, but The Red Room is the ‘Holy Grail’ for many writers.
Salman Rushdie, Barack Obama & Jane Smiley are three household names that have had their books featured there.

As of the 12th May 2009 the book is in the top 40 best sellers for my publishers. So at least one thing the UK Government are getting right was to allow Arts Council funding to them! You can check out the publishers via this link. Never forget one thing when buying a book from Amazon - If you don’t enjoy it, then you can sell it through the site.
What do you look for in a book?
Adventure with tales of daring escapades on the High Seas?
Battles retold with nothing left out?
The truth about what life was like in the 17th Century?
Some really sexy scenes?
Well congratulations - you have found the right website.
This summer the follow up novel ‘Captain Blood’s Pirates’ will be available.
Excerpts will appear here shortly.
Many are seeing my book as ‘A Biggles’ for adults. In other words an adventure that sweeps you from the battlefields of England onto the High Seas with ‘The Real Captain Blood’. Pirates, bloodshed and sex with dusky maidens.
Here is the introduction.
Prelude
The Bloody Assize –
In the Great Hall of Taunton Castle
I am Lieutenant Michael Fane serving with His Majesty King James II’s Royal Lifeguards. I have been charged with Murder and High Treason. This is only my nineteenth year and I am in mortal dread of what will happen to me within just a few short hours. My jailors have continuously taunted me with the tales of others who have suffered their fate at the hands of the infamous 1st Baron of Wem., Judge George Jeffreys.
Yesterday I, and my fellow inmates, had heard the screams of brave men as they were hanged briefly only then to be revived on the gibbet by a foul concoction of vinegar and stale wine forced down their opened gullets. We could hear their ‘splutters and gasps for air’ over the hushed crowds. Then by the heart rendering screams as they had their stomachs slashed open twice with a cleave followed by a large disgusting hook forced into their living entrails and entangled between the two cuts.
END - Are you ‘hooked’? Follow the adventures of Michael, along with Daniel Defoe, Captain Blood and the most lethal swordsman ever ‘Simon Lovelock’. Sail on ‘The Sea Hawk’ for sea battles, gold theft, piracy and sex.
