Armada’s Wake by JD Davies

10 August 2020 By Editor

Buy Armada's Wake by JD Davies

It’s 1588.

The greatest naval force of its age bears down upon England. As a devastating battle looms, a nation holds its breath.

Jack Stannard, grandson of the original Jack, is stationed on Drake’s warship Revenge. His father, Tom, commands his own vessel and even his grandfather is close by.

Each must be ready for the greatest battle of their lives.

Everything is at stake: the fleet, the Queen, England and behind it all something even more binding. Family. On every front they must triumph.

Armada’s Wake by JD Davies, the third and last in his Jack Stannard of the Navy Royal series, is published as an ebook on 10 August, 2020.
