註釋
Trapped in the Dragon Tong's search for a lost legend, Steve Maxwell finds a way out by enlisting in the Lancastrian Commonwealth Fleet. If he survives long enough to earn a commission, he'll be able to hunt down the pirates who killed his mentor. To get there, he'll have to slog through rain-swollen swamps, dodge incoming fire on a 'peacekeeping' mission, and face down a gang of angry smugglers. Even far away from enemies, a mistake can turn a spaceship into a deathtrap. It'll take resourcefulness and courage to succeed... but Steve hasn't come this far in order to fail. "Reminiscent of 'Time Enough For Love' in style, 'Ride The Rising Tide' follows 'Take The Star Road'. It describes Steve Maxwell's evolution from a civilian mindset into a military one. This is a finely detailed, realistic mosaic of challenges, accomplishments and personal triumphs." - Oleg Volk
