Josiah Stubb: Interim Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 32 ratings

"Full of action; bloody battles are fought, love is found in a savage land and in the background, a character from Stubb’s past seeks him out. From Louisburg through savage forests the ultimate goal of Quebec beckons and a debt of blood remains to be paid. Bravo Mr Lovatt, Josiah Stubb is fast becoming one of my favourite literary characters." ~ The Review

Book 2 in the Josiah Stubb series.

September, 1758: the fortress of Louisbourg lies beaten into the mud on the Cape Breton shore. To consolidate their victory, the British are mopping up pockets of resistance along The Gulf of Saint Lawrence. However, although gravely wounded, New France still has teeth, personified by a ruthless officer who will stop at nothing to prevent the hated anglais from advancing another step.

To oppose him is the young, but untried, lieutenant, Josiah Stubb, born in the gutter and raised into the hostile environs of the officers’ mess by none other than General Wolfe himself. Deep in the forests of the Gaspé Peninsula, pitted against a fierce enemy who asks for, and gives no, quarter, Josiah is riven with doubts about his own abilities as an officer, with the lives of himself, and the men he commands, hanging in the balance.

    Josiah Stubb has been made an officer in this riveting tale of the battle between the English and the French, plus native Indians. This is a compelling story of the reality of war and the men who fight while their officers plot for advancement and/or revenge. I myself could do with less descriptions of fighting but I know that is a personal view and the writer's dialogue and strong depiction of women makes up for that.

    Josiah Stubb is a character that I found very endearing. He's far from perfect,as a matter of fact,most would not have succeeded in bettering themselves after having lived through his horrendous upbringing. This story picks up where "The Siege of Louisbourg" left off.
    Reading this book,I felt as if I was living the story along with the characters. On many occasions I found myself holding my breath while my heart beat erratically. You are transported to 1758 Canada,where the English are at war with the French,the English trying to take over Canada . Not only was reading this book exciting,it gives you a history lesson,one that I was fascinated to learn. The first book in the series is a spectacular read,so it is of no surprise that this carries on the tradition. C W Lovatt puts enough information about the first book into this one ,to allow you to understand the backstory if you choose to read it out of sequence.This tale is so very fascinating,with colorful characters,witty dialogue and the very best historical storyline I've read in ages.
    This is an outstanding book and I highly recommend it,and for those of you who haven't read the first book,I beseech you to read Josiah's first book " The Siege of Louisbourg".

    Josiah Stubb is one of my favourite characters. This book is the second in the series after the Seige of Louisbourg and takes us into the battle over Canada.
    I love the skill Mr. Lovett uses to bring his characters and locales to glowing life. This is a brilliant book and I highly recommend it.Don't miss the first one also!
    I received this book for an honest review.

    This is the second in the Josiah Stubb series and is probably even better than the first. Great read, a real page turner and the pace never lets up.
