title: The Navigator: A Perilous Passage, Evasion at Sea, A Sailing Adventure of Smuggling, Pirates, Storms and Love
author:  Steve Coleman 
description: Coleman garnishes the story with eloquent passages. ... and he uses well-timed humor...But what makes the novel truly great is its simplicity. ...just four people to worry about as they sail the vast ocean, and that's more than enough. Worth the trip.<br />Kirkus Indie, Kirkus Media LLC
