Skull and Bones Reviews

Praise for 'Flint & Silver': 'Flint & Silver contains the essential ingredients to attract a worldwide following' Western Morning News 'An epic tale of friendship and treason' The Sea 'Swashbuckling adventure on the high seas doesn't get much better than this. If you loved Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island as a kid -- and who didn't? -- then you will absolutely love this not-for-kids prequel. John Drake writes beautifully, and you'll be torn between savoring the words and quickly flipping the pages. Any favorable comparison to Stevenson or Patrick O'Brian is totally justified' Nelson DeMille
