| | 2. |  | Ship of the Line (Hornblower Saga)
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.16
Customer Review:
The entire series is amazing! I do wish I was a little more of a sailor it would make the read much more enjoyable as his books are filled with techinical jargon, etc... Don't worry though not knowing anything definately does not detract from the stories, but knowing sure would help. Make sure you... more info

| | 3. |  | Mr. Midshipman Hornblower (Hornblower Saga)
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.19
Customer Review:
I can't believe that I've never read this series! After wrapping up Cornwell's Sharpe's series, I was desperate for another good series on the Napoleonic wars, and I came across Forseter's Hornblower books. Lots of action and a style that makes you feel like you're on deck, reefing the tops'ls right... more info

| | 4. |  | Lieutenant Hornblower
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.19
Customer Review:
This was my first Hornblower book after a recommendation from a friend. Could not put this book down especially after the mutiny.
The details of life in the English navy in the 18th century and then in London are richly told with details such as the "press gang" that goes out rounding up... more info

| | 5. |  | Hornblower : Beat to Quarters
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.19
Customer Review:
Although Midshipman Hornblower describes the beginning of Horatio Hornblower's naval career, Beat to Quarters was the first Hornblower book that Forester wrote. As a result, it stands well on its own, and doesn't require any background provided by the other books in the series. It is also a much... more info

| | 6. |  | Hornblower and the "Hotspur" (Hornblower Series)
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.19
Customer Review:
Hornblower is one of the very best literary characters ever and all of his stories are compelling with lots of gritty action. The language may be difficult for some as it is archaic and filled with jargon, but it is worth it to take the time and enter into the world of the Royal Navy.

| | 8. |  | Commodore Hornblower (Hornblower, 9)
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.19
Customer Review:
This is the next Hornblower chronologically, it was not the next one written. Now that the series is completed it makes sense to read it as Hornblower's career progresses in the Royal Navy.
The whole series is a pleasure to read full of action and adventure; with enough time for a little... more info

| | 9. |  | Lord Hornblower (Hornblower Saga)
from Back Bay Books
Price: $11.19
Customer Review:
I have now read all but one of the Hornblower series, and there's not a clinker in the lot. This book is just as good as the others and I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite. Hornblower's combination of ingenious daring and wracking self-doubt make him one of my favorite literary characters. I do,... more info
