The Sins of Men (The Peter Smith Chronicles Book #1) by Danny J. Bradbury – Review by Angela Hayes

The Sins of Men: An American Revolutionary War Drama by Danny J. Bradbury
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 – 4 Stars

The Sins of Men is the first book in The Peter Smith Chronicles by Danny J. Bradbury. It is a fascinating but moving historical fiction story set amid the final stages of the Seven Years’ War, that then leads into the American Revolution.
We follow Peter Beale, an English 10-year-old street urchin who ends up forced into service on a British warship enroute to America. The Sins of Men gives a heart-wrenching account of the torment he endures aboard the ship, before he finally manages to escape to Boston where his new life begins when he is offered a home and taken in by a local merchant Robert Smith…. and so Peter’s adventures ensue.
With action, dramatic developments, intrigue, risk, danger, overcoming, the strength of the human spirit, challenges, survival, good vs evil, revolution, action, history, and more made for an interesting read.
As this was my first book by Mr. Bradbury, I really didn’t know what to expect from his storytelling, but I am glad I took a chance on this book and will definitely be continuing the chronicles- so bring on Book #2.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Danny J. Bradbury!
