The Tide of War: A Nathan Peake Novel (The Nathan Peake Novels) ReviewTide of War is the second book in a trilogy dealing with the naval career of Nathan Peake, a British naval officer during the napoleonic wars. Early in this novel, Peake is promoted to Post-Captain, and is ordered to the West Indies where he is to take command of HMS Unicorn, a vessel whose previous Captain has been killed in an apparent mutiny, and his body found washed ashore at the inlet to Lake Pontchartrain with a slit throat.
Although it is the second in a trilogy, this work can be read as a stand-alone novel. I had not read the first novel in the trilogy, but found that I had no trouble following the storyline as the first few chapters do a good job of filling in the background of Peake's career.
Overall, this is an action packed novel of napoleonic era naval fiction in the fine tradition of C.S. Forester and Patrick O'Brian that should appeal to most fans of the genre. While the character of Nathan Peake is not as well drawn as Horatio Hornblower or Jack Aubrey, the plot of the novel satisfies with rousing battle scenes both at sea and in the swamps and bayous around New Orleans.The Tide of War: A Nathan Peake Novel (The Nathan Peake Novels) Overview
