"Meticulously researched. Accurate in every way. Better than
Hornblower" ~ RobsBooks ~ |

This is the Nineteenth novel in the series, and said to be the penultimate
one! For Jack Aubrey, the Hundred Days bought an eleventh-hour rescue of a lifetime's service in the Royal Navy that, for all it's brilliance and excitement, seemed to be ending in inconspicuous respectability.

Books in order by Patrick O'Brian in the Aubrey-Maturin Series:
Master
and Commander.
This book begins the adventure, and sets the scene for the rest of the series.
Post
Captain.
This story begins with Jack Aubrey arriving home from the Mediterranean to find
England at peace following the Treaty of Amiens. He and his friend Stephen Maturin,
surgeon and secret agent, begin to live the lives of country gentlemen. Their comfortable
existence, however, is cut short when Jack is overnight reduced to a pauper with enough
debts to keep him in prison for life. He flees to the continent to seek refuge: instead he
finds himself a fugitive as Napoleon has ordered the internment of all Englishmen in
France. Aubrey's adventures in escaping from both France and the debtor's prison will grip
the reader as fast as his unequalled actions at sea.
HMS
Surprise.
H.M.S Surprise follows the variable fortunes of Captain Jack Aubrey's career in
Nelson's navy as he attempts to hold his ground against admirals, colleagues and the
enemy, accepting a commission to convey a British ambassador to the East Indies. The
voyage takes him and his friend Stephen Maturin to the strange sights and smells of the
Indian subcontinent, and through the archipelago of spice islands where the French have a
near-overwhelming local superiority.
The
Mauritius Command.
Based on the actual campaign of 1810 in the Indian Ocean, O'Brian's attention to
the detail of eighteenth century life ashore and at sea is meticulous. This tale is as
beautifully written and as gripping as any in the series; it also stands on it's own as a
superlative work of fiction.
The
Hundred Days.
This is the Nineteenth novel in the series, and said to be the penultimate
one!
For Jack Aubrey, the Hundred Days bought an eleventh-hour rescue of a lifetime's
service in the Royal Navy that, for all it's brilliance and excitement, seemed to be
ending in inconspicuous respectability.
He is already on his way across the Atlantic to
try his fortunes under the flag of the young Chilean republic when Napoleon escapes from
Elba...
Now available in paperback.
| Blue
at the Mizzen. This is the latest Aubrey-Maturin novel. The title of this book suggests that Jack Aubrey will at last achieve the longed for rank of a Blue Admiral. At the outset of this story he is neither financially embarrassed or under a professional cloud. In this book his ship the Surprise is bound for Chile, to ignite revolutionary politics there. This is bound to be a good read. |
