Staff Review
I read this series (20 titles) over a summer ten years ago; they were excellent then, they are superb now. Impeccably researched, they are set in the Napoleonic era, upon the Mediterranean and oceans of the world; the series follows the careers and adventures of the Royal Navy's Captain Jack Aubrey and his friend Stephen Maturin, a naval surgeon, naturalist and spy.
