"Josiah Stubb: Interim" Coming Soon!!
Only six more sleeps to release date (squeeee!)
Now available for pre-order. Release date April 14.
Book 2 in the Josiah Stubb series.
September, 1758: the fortress of Louisbourg lies beaten into the mud on the Cape Breton shore. To consolidate their victory, the British are mopping up pockets of resistance along The Gulf of Saint Lawrence. However, although gravely wounded, New France still has teeth, personified by a ruthless officer who will stop at nothing to prevent the hated anglais from advancing another step.
To oppose him is the young, but untried, lieutenant, Josiah Stubb, born in the gutter and raised into the hostile environs of the officers’ mess by none other than General Wolfe himself. Deep in the forests of the Gaspé Peninsula, pitted against a fierce enemy who asks for, and gives no, quarter, Josiah is riven with doubts about his own abilities as an officer, with the lives of himself, and the men he commands, hanging in the balance.

"Charlie Smithers: Adventures in India" - A Review - "A Great Followup..."
With another book coming out in a few short weeks, my focus always tends to be on that one, like a child that has grown until it's ready to go out and take its place in the world. So yes, I do tend to fuss over those ones quite a bit more than the others. In that light, it's always a delight when one of my more established books is discovered by a new reader, and they are kind enough to write a review.
Thank you Sandra, you've quite made my day.
Thank you Sandra, you've quite made my day.
5.0 out of 5 starsA great followup to book 1, one that still leaves a lasting impression in my soul and continues on in this second installement.

Once
again, C W Lovatt does not dissapoint with this second installement of
the Charlie Smithers series. It is as much an action-adventure book as
it is a recount of historical events that happened and were recorded in
history. I always had a hard time to put one of C W Lovatt's books down
and this one was no exception. As much as the subject matter of this
book was complex, as much it was written in a way that I was able to
understand it all and have a jolly old time while reading it. I also had
a fond affection for some of the characters of the book and I do wish
them well as they parted towards the end of the story. Still,
remembering the feelings the first book of the series left a lasting
imprint in me that will never go away, I felt that this book was an
excellent followup to the first one. The powerful message and emotions
from book one are well felt in book two and I do hope that they are and
will continue to be throughout the whole series. A great work by C W
Lovatt indeed.

"Josiah Stubb" - A Review - "This Book Will Stick With Me Forever!!!"
Thanks Monique!
ByMonique Lominoon 8 March 2017
Josiah,Stubb,Josiah
Stubb,Josiah Stubb,over and over,that name echoed in my head ever since
I opened a book with the title "JOSIAH STUBB
THE SIEGE OF LOUISBOURG". I didn't read this book ,I absorbed every single page into my soul. There are books that stick with you throughout your life and this is such a book. This book has been on my tbr (to be read) list for ages,so when I finally had the opportunity to delve into it,I was blown away.The story of Josiah Stubb is a complicated,but compelling one,born in the gutter but also born with a need to better himself,no matter the cost. His ability to move forward despite all obstacles is commendable. Most would go through life bitter and vengeful because of the trials he had to endure ,but not dear Josiah,he trudged on,hoping that maybe one day his luck would turn. I came away wishing for happiness to finally find him and hold him in it's embrace forevermore.Rich with historical facts,it gives you insight into what life was like in those days,it also gives you a front row seat to view,up close and personal,what war was really like,no romance here folks,war is hell and it is evident in this tale.
At this point,I must warn readers. Beware,this book is highly addictive. An absolutely splendid read ,put forth by the exceptional author C W Lovatt. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!

"The Adventures of Charlie Smithers - A Review - Edgar Rice Burroughs and Me
I've been compared to a great many authors over the years - CS Forester, Bernard Cornwell, George MacDonald Fraser and even Kurt Vonnegut, just to name a few - but this one's a first.

If
you love anything in the likes of Edgar Rice Burroughs, you will love
this book. The action was non stop, the characters were unbelievable. I
could not put this book down at all and I even cried a great deal
towards the end. I will not give any spoilers, but wow, this book will
leave you breathless and marked for life. Never will I forget the
content of this book as I know I will forever be changed by it. Great
job by C W in writing this masterpiece.
