1.[no image]Master and Commander
from Thorndike Pr

Customer Review:
Patrick O'Brian writes in a fluid, rich fashion that rewards the patient reader with perception, inflection, and reflection. He certainly builds his plot on adventure and the hardship of the British naval adventures in the Napoleonic era, but the reader who enjoys his stories best is the reader who... more info

2.Post Captain (Vol. Book 2) (Aubrey Maturin Series)Post Captain (Vol. Book 2) (Aubrey/Maturin Series)
from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $13.85

Customer Review:
An enormous improvement over "Master and Commander" in technique, richness, depth and interest. An utter delight to read and ultimately a simply brilliant novel. A great place to start the series, since the first book would probably not have given me any impetus to continue the series, but "Post... more info

from Thorndike Press
Price: $28.95

Customer Review:
H.M.S. SURPRISE, the third in the 21-volume series of seafaring novels featuring Captain Jack Aubrey and Dr, Stephen Maturin, is noticeably improved over the the two preceding novels, MASTER AND COMMANDER and POST CAPTAIN. In fact, I have only two nits to pick with its style, but first let's take a... more info

4.[no image]The Yellow Admiral
from Wheeler Pub Inc
Price: $99.26

Customer Review:
"The Yellow Admiral" is 18th in the 20 novel Aubrey-Maturin series, featuring Captain Jack Aubrey and his companion ship surgeon Stephen Maturin, set in the year 1815. "The Yellow Admiral" one a episode in a grand epic, and as such the plot is of secondary importance. Revealing "how it comes out"... more info

6.21: The Final Unfinished Voyage of Jack Aubrey (Aubrey Maturin Series)21: The Final Unfinished Voyage of Jack Aubrey (Aubrey/Maturin Series)
from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $12.80

Customer Review:
This shows signs of being rushed to print, including obvious typos in the printed text. Conceivably, these were O'Brian's typos in his typescript and the publisher diligently reproduced them, but that seems unlikely at best. It's also disappointing that the publisher couldn't find someone to... more info

7.The CommodoreThe Commodore
from Norton

Customer Review:
Amended review: This ISN'T the last of the series! WOO HOO! I found that there are three more titles, and an unfinished one as well, plus a fellow named Dean King has put together an atlas and a dictionary of terms based on the Aubrey/Maturin series.
Whew. The Commodore ended well enough to cap... more info

9.Blue at the MizzenBlue at the Mizzen
from HarperCollins Publishers Ltd

Customer Review:
Patrick O'Brian's "Blue at the Mizzen" is the twentieth and final book in Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin series. The Aubrey-Maturin books are quite simply the best fiction I've ever read. I enjoy them so much that I find it difficult to read any other fiction now.
Although there are twenty... more info

10.[no image]The Surgeon's Mate
from Thorndike Press
Price: $5.94

Customer Review:
If you read this volume in the Aubry/Maturin series right after #6, the title is somewhat ambiguous: I was not sure whether O'Brian was hinting at further occurences involving the young man who, in volume 6, was Maturin's helper as ship's doctor (and who may have had something to do with the burning... more info
