About this product
Product Information
All Patrick O'Brian's strengths are on parade in this novel of action and intrigue, set partly in Malta, partly in the treacherous, pirate-infested waters of the Red Sea. While Captain Aubrey worries about repairs to his ship, Stephen Maturin assumes the center stage for the dockyards and salons of Malta are alive with Napoleon's agents, and the admiralty's intelligence network is compromised. Maturin's cunning is the sole bulwark against sabotage of Aubrey's daring mission.

I fell in love with his writing straightaway, at first with Master and Commander. It wasn't primarily the Nelson and Napoleonic period, more the human relationships. . . . And of course having characters isolated in the middle of the goddamn sea gives more scope. . . . It's about friendship, camaraderie. Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin always remind me a bit of Mick and me., The Aubrey-Maturin series . . . far beyond anyepisodic chronicle, ebbs and flows with the timeless tide of character and thehuman heart., O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin volumes actuallyconstitute a single 6,443-page novel, one that should have been on those listsof the greatest novels of the 20th century., I 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., [O'Brian's] Aubrey-Maturin series, 20 novels of the RoyalNavy in the Napoleonic Wars, is a masterpiece. It will outlive most of today'sputative literary gems as Sherlock Holmes has outlived Bulwer-Lytton, as MarkTwain has outlived Charles Reade, The best historical novels ever written. . . .On every page Mr. O'Brian reminds us with subtle artistry of the most importantof all historical lessons: that times change but people don't, that the griefsand follies and victories of the men and women who were here before us are infact the maps of our own lives., It has been something of a shock to findmyself--an inveterate reader of girl books--obsessed with Patrick O'Brian'sNapoleonic-era historical novels. . . . What keeps me hooked are the evolvingrelationships between Jack and Stephen and the women they love., [O'Brian's] Aubrey-Maturin series, 20 novels ofthe Royal Navy in the Napoleonic Wars, is a masterpiece. It will outlive mostof today's putative literary gems as Sherlock Holmes has outlivedBulwer-Lytton, as Mark Twain has outlived Charles Reade., O'Brian's narrative...provides endlessly varying shocks and surprises--comic, grim, farcical and tragic. An essential of the truly gripping book for the narrative addict is the creation of a whole, solidly living world for the imagination to inhabit, and O'Brian does this with prodigal specificity and generosity.

Maturin's cunning is the sole bulwark against sabotage of Aubrey's daring mission., "Every [Aubrey-Maturin] book is packed to absolute straining with erudition, wit, history, and thunderous action." --Joe Hill

But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
