Synopsis:

On a strange decoy mission to the disease-ridden lagoons of the Gulf of New Guinea, Captain Aubrey and secret intelligence agent Maturin are ordered to suppress the slave trade, but the French are mounting an invasion that will give the men added problems. Read by Simon Vance. Book available.

Review:

"A brilliantly imagined world that one scarcely wishes ever to leave....Patrick O'Brian is unquestionably the Homer of the Napoleonic wars."

James Hamilton-Paterson, New Republic

Review:

"At the risk of alienating the self-improving reader, let me say that these books are, in fact, extraordinarily exciting, with adventure very much on the page. Patrick O'Brian is indeed the true heir of Captain Marryat (1792-1848), another witty and intelligent writer who has been tarred with the genre brush."

Katherine A. Powers, Atlantic Monthly, July 1995
