    Revenge can be sweet. This is a great story. Thank you.

    Chapter 3

    Caroline is happy. George is happy with the plans for his island house. Somers back on board for this new adventure. Then Georges' concerns about tomorrow are laid to rest by Cavendish and their conversation. What a positive chapter, thank you.

    Chapter 2

    Are the carronades included in the 38 guns or are they extra, same question for the bow chasers. So, Weston someone new, Robey someone known and adding to the pot a one handed, pigtailed and tattooed sailor. Throw in a royal herald and stir. Great chapter, thank you.

    Chapter 1

    So, a peace accord with Prince William. A voyage with an unhinged Arthur to the Far East and then a return with a most unhappy Bertie. Many blanks filled in and a much needed reunion with Cavendish. What a great start to this new adventure,
  5. These should have been in my last post ( en vagyok a bal oldalon - 1976). Sorry screwed up again.

    Epilogue

    CJames From the beginning to the end. Thank you ever so much. Sandrewn
  7. CJames Thank you for one of the best reads ever. Happy for an ending with answers to all. Sad to not have a chapter to look forward to. Best wishes, Sandrewn
  8. I am sure that my confusion is temporary, that all will become clear (I hope). Hamish is starting to demontrate abilities, maybe along the lines that Paul has? More please, thanks in advance.
  9. I tried to scan and import some Sphinx photos, no luck so far. It scary but I find myself agreeing with Ricky re Winkler. Having looked the Sphinx in the eye I have often wondered myself about that. Here is something I found on it. http://www.napoleon-series.org/faq/c_sphinx.html

    Chapter 52

    Great chapter, thank you. Well he once disguised himself as a French seaman, it is not a stretch to imagine him in a French officers' uniform on a secret mission.
  11. Stellar By all means, sequel first. I usually go back to read a story again several years later. Yours I have already started to. Thanks for saving the kitten. I will let you know the count of that 2 / 14 thingy. Regards, Sandrewn

    Epilogue

    Everything every one has said times ( X ) ten. The beginning pulled me in. The chapters lead me ever on. The end was satisfying to the extreme. With a little taste what might come. I will wait as long as it takes for more of your artistry. Best wishes and many thanks.

    Leagues Of Night

    And then there were three. One door closes, another opens. Most important, humans are still there and in control? Why does this story have to end? Thank you ever so much.

    Sunlight Unbound

    Two down, one not of this universe, the other bred, born and died here. What are our two becoming? I refuse to look ahead ( 20 & 21) until this is sent. Great chapter, thank you.

    Part 25.

    As expected, its gets better and better, great chapter. What further position could the AIs next appoint him to. Beware the Rogue.
  16. I think 4 plus days of no posting in this forum is a depressing silence. Especially when I glance over to 'The Darkside' and see a veritable festival of interaction. While I would take a chapter a day from you, you would spoil us. Then when the real world reared its ugly head (as it must eventually) the withdrawl pains (the whining) would start again. Slow and steady, if you please, thank you.

    Chapter 51

    I posted before I realized there was a new chapter awaiting me. I also was tracking the time to his second epaulette (darn). I have ridden there and in the Sinai on camel. As mentioned, the dry heat and that damn sand got in every where. The flies were everywhere (the unofficial National Bird of Egypt), you just get used to them. I really enjoyed this chapter, thank you. I think Granger is going to need his backup (J & J) sooner than later.
  18. This continuing silence is depressing. Here is a song I first heard over 40 years ago. Could we call it a musical interlude? A Clean Song (traditional) | Cantaria Folk Song Archive
  19. If you can maintain this level, its going to be a great story. Thank you.
  20. Ok, I screwed up with the xebecs. In all of the Middle East there had to be some pirates, most likely muslim, due to the region, that had craft (not xebecs) of some sort (I know, I'm beating a dead horse). Since my last there was one vote, so I guess my report of its' demise was a tad premature (but fading fast).
  21. I am thinking your last comment put an abrupt end to this poll. I have only one (really left field) thought. Bacchante becalmed in deep water, surrounded by a fleet of fifty xebecs. The end of Maidstone (and the letters) along with the loss of many of our beloved characters, the ship a Arab prize.

    Chapter 50

    It took writer William Peter Blatty 122 min. movie. With neck twisting and power vomiting special affects, 'The Exorcist' (1973) won 2 Oscars and 4 Golden Globes. Your Exorcism with a mear 6,238 words laid not one demon, Jardines', but also Grangers' to rest. Blessings be upon you Mark.
  23. Thank you Westie, for a while there I thought we had time travelled and Vaudeville was alive and kicking. Not that I was around then, I wasn't even a gleam in my fathers' eye at the time.
  24. That would take out a third or more of the reviewers and over a quarter of the posters. Oh well, in for a penny, in for a pound. Its Major (not Lt) Jardines. Travers (R.I.P.) was provisional pending his completion of the ceremony and Arthur was his sponsor. Dead man walking (from the 'Green Mile',I really like that movie).
  25. Sir Francis Molyneux the current Black Rod. Rumored to be a member.
