The second installment of the thrilling maritime adventure; two mighty empires battle each other for control of the high seas.
Atticus is the young captain of the Aquila, the flagship of the attack fleet of the Roman navy. But his commander is a young upstart whose position has been purchased rather than earned. Bound to obey his inexperienced commander's rash orders, Atticus sails straight into a carefully-laid trap. In the battle that follows, it is only by defying his commander that he can pull his men back from the brink of defeat.
But Atticus will pay a high price for his defiance, and, as he is summoned to Rome, he realises he has created a powerful enemy. And, despite his friendship with Septimus, a Roman centurion, Atticus is dangerously unversed in the politics of the Roman senate.
So, Atticus finds himself facing battles both at sea against an ever-more ferocious enemy and on his own ship by those close to home who want their revenge.
Culminating in one of the greatest sea battles of classical times, Captain of Rome is a stirring and powerful novel and John Stack is a born storyteller.

Zustand: Como nuevo. : En la segunda entrega de esta emocionante aventura marítima, dos poderosos imperios luchan por el control de los mares. Atticus, el joven capitán del Aquila, la nave insignia de la flota de ataque de la armada romana, se enfrenta a un comandante novato cuyo puesto ha sido comprado en lugar de ganado. Obligado a obedecer las órdenes imprudentes de su inexperto comandante, Atticus navega directamente hacia una trampa cuidadosamente tendida. En la batalla que sigue, solo desafiando a su comandante puede evitar que sus hombres sean derrotados. Pero Atticus pagará un alto precio por su desafío y, al ser convocado a Roma, se da cuenta de que ha creado un poderoso enemigo. A pesar de su amistad con Septimus, un centurión romano, Atticus desconoce peligrosamente la política del senado romano. Así, Atticus se enfrenta a batallas tanto en el mar contra un enemigo cada vez más feroz como en su propio barco por aquellos cercanos que quieren vengarse. Culminando en una de las mayores batallas navales de la época clásica, 'Capitán de Roma' es una novela conmovedora y poderosa, y John Stack es un narrador nato.
