The Blooding Of Jack Absolute - Tapa dura

London, 1759: Jack's life is easy. A scholar at Westminster School, a master with a billiard cue, the leader of a gang of bucks, he has both a girl he worships...and a courtesan teaching him the more basic arts of love. Yet he plans to give up all carousing and sit the examinations for Cambridge. If he can just stay out of trouble for one night... From the billiard halls and brothels of London to a clash of Empires on the Plains of Abraham, Jack's life is forever altered by that night. Through battles, frantic escapes and a brutal winter spent in a cave in Canada, Jack learns the truth of his father's words...as well as a dozen things to do with a dead bear. But to come of age, first he must learn to kill. Jack Absolute must be blooded.
