Re: The Devil to Pay
I just finished this novel and thoroughly enjoyed it. However, my Kindle edition had a large number of typographical or syntax errors that were distracting.
Has anyone noticed this?

Re: The Devil to Pay
The Devil to Pay is now 'in my wake'. Donachie's novels don't normally stay in my 'stack' this long, but there have been a veritable 'flood' of new offerings in the HNF and HNF associated genre of late and I'm overcome.
Once again, the John Pearce series has moved forward, so this is just another chapter in the long running battle between John Pearce (wrongly pressed) and Capt. Barclay (wrongly presser). By now, you pretty much know the cast of characters as well as their mental and moral 'bent', so the interest comes in the events our protagonist is thrust into and his ability to respond as an ever maturing young naval officer. Author Donachie makes this 'maturing' believable and leaves me ready for the next chapter. A good read.
