In the early days of World War II
​
" The kid from Kansas jumped up and took his gun back. He pointed at the oncoming U-boat and held the trigger down screaming at the top of his lungs all the while.
Van Metre patted him on the back, “That’s it son, we’re not going down with one lousy bullet left onboard this bucket.”

REVIEWS:
"Palmiotti’s prose flows beautifully from chapter to chapter, taking readers on an epic journey that sweeps from the mastery of the seas to the claustrophobic setting of the U-boat interior itself." K.C  Finn- Reader's Favorite

"Palmiotti’s story is hard to put down, and his characters are superbly delineated and credible." Jack Magnus- Reader's Favorite

"Add to that First Voyage’s rightful claim as a first-rate historical novel, and you’ve got one of the best books of the year as far as I can see. Palmiotti’s writing is translucent and lyrical at times, but always highly accessible and, like a siren’s call, quite irresistible. First Voyage is a most impressive debut novel, and it’s most highly recommended" Reader's Favorite

"Told with great love of the seas and the hard-bit men who plow them, this coming of age adventure is sure to delight maritime history fans. Here’s to hoping that the voyages continue and Palmiotti has a shot at becoming the Patrick Taylor of the high seas". Historical Novel Society , November 2017
