At the time of the French Revolution, one of Britain's most skillful naval officers, Charles Saunders Hayden, is a young lieutenant, the son of an English father and a French mother. His abilities and his loyalty to the king of England are beyond dispute, yet his career seems doomed by his "mixed" heritage and lack of political connections. Consequently, Hayden is assigned to an aging frigate, the Themis, under the command of Captain Josiah Hart, a man known as "Faint Hart" throughout the service.

As the Themis takes to sea to harass the enemy, the disaffection of the crew begins to boil over into acts of violence, and the lieutenant finds himself caught between his superior and a crew pushed toward mutiny. A revolution at sea ensues, and Hayden is wrenchingly torn between honor and duty, as the magnificent Royal Navy engages the French in a centuries-old struggle for power.

When I first started listening to this audio book, I found it a little boring. The narrator seemed a little monotone. Maybe it was just me because in a short time I was engrossed in the happenings and characters. I have never read a nautical novel, so I really enjoyed the educational part of this historical novel.

Enjoyed, new subject.

around the end of the 18th century then you'll love UNDER ENEMY COLORS!! An honorable protagonist... A repugnant antagonist... Throw in all the descriptions of Naval warfare of that period and a flawless performance by the amazing Simon Vance and you have a first rate audio book. I loved it, and I can't wait for the next book in the series.

if you love British sea novels ....

If you could sum up Under Enemy Colors in three words, what would they be?

Exciting, elegant, engrossing.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Under Enemy Colors?

Coming to the aid of a friendly ship face with a hidden threat.

Have you listened to any of Simon Vance’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I also listened to Dust and Shadows. He did a great job on both books. He is easy to listen to and has a wide voice range that takes you into the story.

Any additional comments?

Highly recommend this book.

Brilliant story and naration.

It’s not Master and Commander - but it doesn’t need to be! Engaging and time well spent. Simon Vance is amazing as usual. Great stuff.

Fun naval shenanigans

For those who love a great story, and most especially those who love this genre [tales of the Royal English Navy and it's war against the French] you will be happily rewarded if you buy this audiobook. Simon Vance's rendition is simply brilliant. I eagerly look forward to any and all sequels.

a great addition to the ship of the line genre

Soon to join the ranks of Hornblower and Jack Aubery...this is very well done. If you like historical fiction and the Napoleonic wars...this is a must read. Interesting details and the court martial scenes are an often overlooked part of Naval life in the 1800's. Politics much like today...but in a byegone era. Check it out!

Great sea farin' yarn!

Through the first few chapters it was a fairly good book, but then as they take to the sea it turned into a book that I couldn't stop listening to, Lost a night just hanging on each new adventure. This is a great book for historical fiction listeners. Can't wait for the next in the series.

Great Book if You want to Lose alot of Sleep
