"When a man escapes alive, he has a chance to survive."

In the unforgiving docklands of east London, young orphan William must do all he can to survive. Like the other ‘wharf rats’, his life of petty crime is not a choice; it’s a necessity. But William’s misdeeds won’t remain hidden for long. When the boy unknowingly steals from a murderous pirate captain, escape is his only option. He is forced to stow away and begin a life that will take him to the far side of the world; a life as a soldier of the East India Company.

The thing I liked most in the book is that the MC is someone you can respect and like. Billy is resourceful, brave and decent.
Also, Hosker paints an accurate picture of the past and doesn't disregard the brutal reality, but without the woke guilt trips that ruin a story.
The narrator was brilliant.
My only complaint is that it was too short.

Enjoyed it very much especially during a long drive. The story is engaging and it leaves the door open for a follow up story

Great performance and Story

I started listening to the stories wrote by Griff Hosker less than a year ago. I have listened to approximately 28 of his books some more than once. This book only adds to the great story telling that Griff Hoskers writes. I was hooked in the beginning few chapters and couldn’t stop listening until the book was finished. The story he tells grabs your attention, emotions and feelings that you feel you are living the life of the lead character. I recommend this book to all who love adventure, daring, and history.

A story ended to soon!

Griff Hosker has become the master of the Insta-Warrior. In eight hours of listening he turned a street urchin from London into a contract soldier in India during the Napoleonic Wars. But, this soldier is no Richard Sharpe. He is pampered and fawned upon by friends and superiors alike (ad nauseam).

This novel, set around 1799, is so full of holes and implausibility that the reader’s earbuds dislodge from all the eye rolls invoked by the intersections between serendipity and “my good fortune.” This character gets everything handed to him, including a horse as a private soldier (never happened, ever).

This novel is a very bad start to a series that appears to be a pulp fiction rewrite of Bernard Cornwell’s amazing Richard Sharpe series. It even puts a similar British street urchin in the role of antagonizing the Tipu Sultan,
Ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore from 1782 to 1799,

I do not recommend this book. Read Sharp’s Tiger instead and then spend the next year losing sleep with the fantastic Richard Sharpe sequels.
