Editorial Reviews

Terry Teachout

"The Aubrey-Maturin novels are by a long shot the best things of their kind…they are uniquely excellent."

Irish Independent - Kevin Myers

"No one else writing in the genre today can match [O’Brian’s] erudition, humour, inventiveness and flair."

Keith Richards

"I fell in love with [O’Brian’s] writing straightaway…It’s about friendship, camaraderie. Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin always remind me a bit of Mick and me."
