The year is 1793 and having suffered at the hands of Tonga’s evil King Tui’puloto for too long, the Island Nations of the South Pacific are poised on the brink of civil war. When two heroic young warriors, Sevesi and Hiki, dare to challenge the King’s absolute power, they incur his wrath, and only narrowly escape with their lives.

Meanwhile, as the British and French continue their relentless quest to colonise the South Pacific, one of their ships is hijacked and strays off course, inadvertently dragging both Empires into the greatest tribal war the Pacific has ever known.
As cultures collide, blood is shed, wrongs are righted and unlikely friendships are forged. Yet again, the British and French sorely underestimate the volatility and strength of their foes and the question remains: who will emerge as Lords of the Pacific? Lords of the Pacific is an unforgettable tale of love, revenge and war set in the one of the world’s last great frontiers.
