Kit Faulkner Naval Adventures

The Kit Faulkner Naval Adventures follow an orphan raised in the maritime world of Bristol who becomes a merchant captain as Stuart England moves towards civil war. Kit’s professional rise draws him into piracy, privateering, royal service and the struggle between Crown and Parliament.

The trilogy carries Faulkner from the years before the English Civil War through Royalist exile, the Commonwealth and the Restoration. Naval action is tied to family loyalty, commerce and political survival, showing how regime change reshapes the lives of sailors whose fortunes depend upon unstable patrons and contested seas.
