Captain James Craven followed the army to war to make his fortune, not to fight battles.
In the Spring of 1809 the British Army, spearheaded by Sir Arthur Wellesley, pushes North to drive the French out of Portugal. Captain James Craven, a prize fighter and rogue recruited to teach the use of cold steel is along for the ride, seeking riches and wine. As quick with his mouth as he is with a blade, on the eve of battle Craven is caught in a forbidden duel by Wellesley himself. The outcome is not what he expected. Craven's life is about to take a major turn and descend into a whirlwind adventure beyond his wildest imagination.
Ambushed at night by a treacherous Portuguese officer fighting for the French enemy, Craven must do more than lead soldiers into battle. He must also prove himself to Wellesley in the face of twenty thousand enemy troops defending the city of Porto.
The Craven's War series tells the exciting adventure of one rogue's journey through the Napoleonic Wars as he tries to stay alive and make his fortune.
