Join the 17-year-old Francis Drake in a cutlass-slashing, cannon-blasting sea raid as he assists his cousin John Hawkins in cutting out one of the Hawkins’ ships, rescues its crew, and learns something about himself during the Anglo-French war of 1557.
This is the first scene from Retribution, a short story in the Adventures of Francis Drake series. Focused on a cutting out raid in a French harbor, young Francis Drake gets a first-rate education on attack tactics that will serve him for the rest of his maritime career.
