I humbly submit my new book for the enjoyment of all fans of Napoleonic era military fiction. As its description on Amazon says, "A rollicking quick read! It's "Master and Commander" meets "Star Wars", with a liberal dash of "Debbie Does the Royal Navy". In 1815 a British naval squadron gets mistakenly whisked off to another planet and lands right in the middle of an intergalactic war. Things get especially interesting when the Brits ally with the League of World's energy beings, who take on human female form to "get along" with all the English sailors. Will the Royal Navy ships save the cosmos from the giant flesh-eating Draesh? Will the decorum of proper British officers descend into the gutter thanks to the inviting female aliens? Seems there's never a dull moment for the displaced humans, with lots of thundering ships' broadsides, help from some sharpshooting Americans, and plenty of swordplay pitting high-born British officers against viciously stabbing crabmen. Whether you
like historical fiction, fantasy, bawdy comedy or just a wild crazy read, this is definitely one unforgettable read."
Certainly this is not a serious work of historical fiction like most titles recommended here, but you will find it quite entertaining. Free sample and lending privileges available.
