Sword of Honour (The Bolitho Novels, no. 23) (Volume 23) Paperback – April 1, 2001

Superb stories of sailing warships. Learned much about sail configuration in all kinds of weather, gunnery, and the brutal discipline of that era. Truly enjoyed all of the books. Wished he was still writing. Would love to hear more of the trans-generational Bolitho family of naval officers.

Another good novel in the sequence, but one that seemed rushed at the end. With as much detail as the author usually puts in the story, the demise of Bolitho and the abrupt switch to his nephew seemed unfulfilling. Still, a good tale!

Arrived as advertisedThank you.

I love the Bolitho novels and this one is as good as all the others. At risk of spoiling the end, I am in a state of shock.

I have really enjoyed the series including this book....except for the ending. Kent has a way of killing off exceptional characters. That's okay, but to kill off the main character was very disappointing. The emotional aspects of the story were also getting a little too intense for reality. Don't know if I'll be continuing the series.

What a great story, but I can't believe that our Bolitho is dead. A fine conclusion of his life. I still have a few of his books yet to read but knowing he is dead is a crushing blow. This was the best story since he found Kate

The captains' mistress changes from " not beautiful but a striking woman " in book 11 where they meet into a great beauty.Quite a metamorphosis.

This was an excellent read, and it was time that the Admiral met his fate, as Admirals do not usually take part in these small sea battles.I hope as his nephew carries on in the series he never becomes an Admiral.
