Title: Book review for HMS Expedient
Review: I had high hopes for this book and series. It is the only book in the series that I have read.I've read Age of Sail genre for years and this book didn't hold up to my expectations.I am confused as to who this series is supposed to be about. The Captain or his first Lt.I felt like the captain had a bad case of multiple personality disorder and would not listen to common sense and then waited for his first Lt. to bail him out of situations he created. I am not used to this type of writing. I'm used to the captain having an understanding of sailing and the sailors who work for him and the ship and I can't figure out how this yahoo ever got a commission in the first place.The captain character was either blowing hot or cold through out the book and this was very annoying. I kept waiting to see if the book would turn into another "Mutiny on the Bounty" story.I had high hopes for this series and am now sad by the first book and my first impressions.
