The World Duology (World Odyssey / Fiji: A Novel) - Plot & Excerpts
He hoped the craft would be used to bring his muskets ashore. Sure enough, one casket of his muskets appeared from below deck promptly followed by two more. Nathan quickly did the math: sixty muskets. He thought that should be enough. Again, he wondered if he was doing the right thing. I can’t believe I’m doing this to save these bastards. The American reminded himself the muskets were needed to save his own skin—and Susannah’s. He glanced back at the battle raging behind him and could see the defenders’ situation was becoming desperate. Rambuka and his outcasts were now pouring through gaps they’d smashed in the palisades and were engaging Iremaia’s warriors in vicious hand-to-hand fighting. Nathan looked back at the longboat and its crew and willed them to hurry. He knew the Qopa couldn’t hold out much longer. Rambuka was sensing victory. The Outcast saw Iremaia, aimed his musket at him, and pulled the trigger.
