This is a story based on the real-life, extraordinary exploits of Captain Luke Ryan. It is an epic, little known story of adventure, war, heroism, love, intrigue and betrayal. Ryan, a common smuggler, turned to privateering and ultimately inflicted more damage on the British Navy during America's War of Independence than his more famous counterpart, John Paul Jones. This brilliant, fearless and flamboyant soldier's story is told in three books: Gather the Shadowmen (The Lords of the Ocean), Prince of the Atlantic and Napoleon's Gold.
In Prince of the Atlantic, the American's are losing their life and death struggle against Great Britain for independence and they are losing badly. Their rag-tag armies are in retreat. Their small navy has been swept from the seas. The fate of a fragile nation, the fate of the Revolution, hangs by a thread. In walks Ryan with his fast ships and iron men eager to fight the British for their own reasons. Before the Irishmen are finished, they will capture or destroy over 100 British ships, take hundreds of prisoners and invade a number of English and Scottish towns - tying down precious military resources and causing a financial panic in London. Ryan's two year reign of terror abruptly comes to an end after he is betrayed. He is taken to London in chains to be tried for treason and piracy in the same court where the infamous pirate Captain William Kidd was convicted 80 years before and then, like Kidd, he will hang...
