ReviewsI haven't read novels [in the past ten years] except for all of the Patrick O'Brian series. It was, unfortunately, like tripping on heroin. I started on those books and couldn't stop., Aubrey and Maturin compose one of those complex and fascinating pairs of characters which have inspired thrilling stories of all kinds since the Iliad.

Synopsis"We've beat them before and we'll beat them again." In 1803 Napoleon smashes the Peace of Amiens, and Captain Jack Aubrey, R. N., taking refuge in France from his creditors, is interned. He escapes from France, from debtor's Prison, from a possible mutiny, and pursues his quarry straight into the mouth of a French-held harbor., A newly reissued edition of Agatha Christies Mary Westmacott novel, a Crime of the Heart novel about a mother who comes to resent her daughters success. When Ann falls in love she hopes for new happiness but her only child, Sarah, wrecks any chance of her remarriage. Resentment and jealousy corrode their relationship as each seeks relief in different directions., "Master and Commander raised almost dangerously high expectations, Post Captain triumphantly surpasses them...a brilliant book."--Mary Renault
