Out Front the Following Sea is a historical epic of one woman's survival in a time when the wilderness is still wild, heresy is publicly punishable, and being independent is worse than scorned—it is a death sentence. At the onset of King William's War between French and English settlers in 1689 New England, Ruth Miner is accused of witchcraft for the murder of her parents and must flee the brutality of her town. She stows away on the ship of the only other person who knows her innocence: an audacious sailor—Owen—bound to her by years of attraction, friendship, and shared secrets. But when Owen's French ancestry finds him at odds with a violent English commander, the turmoil becomes life-or-death for the sailor, the headstrong Ruth, and the cast of Quakers, Pequot Indians, soldiers, highwaymen, and townsfolk dragged into the fray. Now Ruth must choose between sending Owen to the gallows or keeping her own neck from the noose.

Loved it!

Prose that comes out punching and a narrative that won’t quit.
Ruth is at odds with everyone and everything, even her dying granny. The villagers, the weather, and Owen, a sailor on the Primrose. And as what usually happens to independent-minded females in Colonial New England, she is treated as if she actually did wither the crops and has the power to harm innocents and not-so-innocents. Owen Townson, son of the captain of the ship he sails with—charming, annoying, challenging, doesn’t believe this is so, at least. The push and pull of their relationship is volatile in the way a forge, hammer, and anvil strengthen metal, and their interactions are a pleasure to read. She runs away with him, but it is a very long journey to actually be with him in a harsh, cruel landscape peopled with monsters masquerading as heroes and heroes as monsters.
Unforgettable prose and the kind of vivid immersive historical fiction I crave and literally flawless in the execution. A twisting plot driven by the characters, the wind, the wrong choices, by the right choices too late.
I had a hard time putting this down throughout and letting go when I was done. It’s still very alive in my mind a few weeks later. I’ve been hoping to come across something like Beheld by Tarashea Nesbit or the Midwife’s Revolt by Jodi Daynard.
Out Front the Following Sea by Leah Angstman is epic adventure storytelling and will keep you on the edge of your seat. I give it 10 brilliant stars and highly, highly recommend it.

A powerful read

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 11 gennaio 2022

An amazing story of love, perseverance, and survival, Out Front the Following Sea is a wonderful mix of action, suspense, history, and romance, and it is a story that will stay with you long after finishing it. Ruth Miner is a survivor – brave, strong, fierce, and fearless. An unconventional girl in a world that thrives on conformity is never safe, as Ruth knows too well. She is a woman ahead of her time with desires that are forbidden in a strict, patriarchal society that demands submission, especially among females. No matter what happens, Ruth never gives up, and I admire her perseverance and fighting spirit, especially considering the insurmountable obstacles she faces.

And the romance? I loved it! It’s heartbreaking and uplifting and devastating and hopeful. Two people bound by tragedy find home with each other, yet they are repeatedly torn apart. This couple went on an epic journey riddled with obstacles, and I couldn’t get enough of their story. I must admit, they broke my heart on more than one occasion, and I so wanted them to find some happiness together. Their deep and profound love story isn’t always pretty, but it is honest, complex, breathtaking, and absolutely epic!

I would definitely recommend this read the lovers of historical fiction. It is powerful and poignant, and it captivated me from the very first page!!

An atmospheric read

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 10 febbraio 2022

Acquisto verificato

Out Front the Following Sea is a delight to read. It’s thoroughly researched but doesn’t feel bogged down in historical facts. Set during the King William’s War between French and English settlers in 1689, the novel abounds with adventure and romance as it deals with survival in colonial New England. The cold winters are enough to The shifting of the political and religious climates, the war against the Native Americans, and the impending war provide ample sources of intrigue and action—along with the ever-present risk of accusations of witchcraft, treason, or heresy, particularly to women who don’t strictly follow the norm.

Ruth Miner is one of those women—headstrong and independent female. Ruth lost both her parents in a fire for which she, despite being only six at the time, was blamed and branded a witch by the colony. Now, at sixteen, she's an outcast, an orphan living with her grandmother.

Ruth has an escape plan, one she drew up with the help of Owen Townsend, her childhood friend, and leaves her village for another one, no less bound by religious and military dogma than her former home.

This is an atmospheric read, so much so you can almost feel the bitter sea winds blowing. However, the ending seemed a bit unbelievable.

Riveting Story

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 2 aprile 2022

Wow! I loved this book. I will admit that it took me a couple of attempts before I got into the story. In the first chapter, the dialogue with Ruth and Owen is hard to follow, but then I was caught up in the story. I did not like Ruth in the first part. She was so angry with Owen despite the nice things he did for her. But by Part Two, Ruth had won me over to her side. I could not put the book down, and I even gasped at parts than caught me off guard as the twists and turns of the storyline unfolded. The exciting action scenes literally left me breathless. I could not read fast enough. I have recommend this book to so many people. If you love historical fiction, this is a must read that will leave you thinking about the characters long after you finish the book.

Last pages missing from book!

Poor quality control from publisher of this book - the last pages were missing. I will return this book, but I wonder if the whole print batch is flawed. Can't believe the printer allowed these incomplete books on the market.
