"Greene has provided another page-turner here, filling the seas with gunfire and knife fights, and London with a network of spies and traitors!" (Kirkus Reviews) 

Paladin's War: Midshipman Jonathan Moore, Marine Private Sean Flagon, and adventurer Delain Dowdeswell enjoy a delicate peace between France and England. However, mysterious spy networks now freely roam Europe's great cities, and the ships and armies of all nations remain on the edge of war. Jonathan is now aboard the 18-gun Paladin, the Royal Navy’s fastest ship. Commanded by his friend and mentor, Lieutenant Harrison, their mission is to deliver an important treaty to a clandestine location. 

In London, Delain encounters a shadowy black rider sneaking about the mansions of London’s elite. Suspecting foul play, she investigates and enters a web of spies, coded messages, and kidnapping. Delain’s investigation turns deadly as she finds that all clues lead to the Paladin’s mission, and her friends, thousands of miles away and in grave danger. 

At sea, the boys have a mystery of their own to solve: their sister ship, HMS Echo, avoids all contact. A sabotaged gun, a mistrusted crew, and a vicious assault on their ship by a well-armed band of assailants have the men and officers of the Paladin anxious. Led to waters far from home, the boys must battle a rogue Russian frigate and survive the final conflict of the Paladin’s War. 

Paladin's War is the winner of the Chanticleer Book Reviews Goethe Award. The Adventures of Jonathan Moore series has been awarded first place in the Dante Rossetti Young Adult Series competition.
