Publisher's Summary
Arthur Wesley (the future Duke of Wellington) was born and bred to be a leader. With a firm belief that the nation must be led by a king, the red-coated British officer heads for battle against the French Republic, to restore the fallen monarchy.
Napoleon Bonaparte joins the French military on the eve of the Revolution. He believes leadership is won by merit, not by noble birth. When anarchy explodes in Paris, he's thrust into the revolutionary army poised to march against Britain.
As two mighty empires embark on a bloody duel, Wesley and Bonaparte prepare to face a sworn enemy, unaware that the fate of Europe will one day lie in their hands....

Great story telling
Simon Scarrow is more than the author of the Eagles of Rome series which captivated me, coming to the end of that series I came across Young Bloods and thought I'd give it a try especially given it is narrated by Jonathan Keeble. Simon is a historical fiction genius. Great story telling combined with great narration. It's worth every star.

Great background to the Generals
A bit slow to start, but a great insight to the Aristocracy in Britain and France in the late seventeen hundreds

Not Happy.
The narration stopped at chapter 72 and never started up again. Help was no help.
