About this ebook

 At fifteen, Alexis Carew has to face an age old problem - she's a girl, and only a boy can inherit the family's vast holdings. Her options are few. She must marry and watch a stranger run the lands, or become a penniless tenant and see the lands she so dearly loves sold off. Yet there may be another option, one that involves becoming a midshipman on a shorthanded Navy spaceship with no other women.

Ratings and reviews

I loved the blend of SciFi with traditional nautical fiction, and the characters were believable and well-developed. There is, though, a problem with sentence-structure and proof-reading in general. The other problem is that I can't find part 2 on Google Play Books. Author: Please contact me so I can pass on my proof-reading notes.

I grew up reading Horatio Hornblower and this book so reminded me of that series. It was well thought out the characters were developed well and I'm anxious to get deeper in

Like a younger more inocent version of Honor by David Webber (a series i enjoyed very much). Was an enjoyable read , though short. Nice short story. Nice setup for the next book too. Better then i expected.
