Here's a very good press release from the publisher, in PDF form: If you enjoy the Hornblower novels, you might enjoy these. Don These are great books, and in many ways far better than the Hornblower novels.

And I'm glad they are finally available as (legal) eBooks. But at nearly $10 each, when I already have the complete set of both pBooks and Audio books, I'm not sure if I'll be buying them any time soon. I am a huge fan of this series. In fact, I have started re-reading the series again (read the complete series about 4-5 years ago). I have read and enjoyed other 'sea-faring' series, but this by the best so far. I was thrilled when they finally opened the series in ebook format.I really enjoy my kindle. This my is my first book forum, so I am anxious to get into some discussion with other fans of the books as I don't really know anyone personally that has read series.

CWO4 Welcome to MobileRead. I'm sure some of our members will be happy to engage you in a conversation here in this thread. Don (Moderator). I am a huge fan of this series. In fact, I have started re-reading the series again (read the complete series about 4-5 years ago).

I have read and enjoyed other 'sea-faring' series, but this by the best so far. I was thrilled when they finally opened the series in ebook format.I really enjoy my kindle. This series is alway nice to come back to.

A couple of years ago I searched (in vain) for a similar experience by checking other nautical adventure (e.g. CS Forrester). Obviously I failed, I do not (just) love these novels for their setting and the action, but for the interaction of characters. Another important point for me is that there is happiness and wit found here. In.de/.at there are two Kindle editions available: Harper (EUR 5.55 ) and Norton (EUR 8.67).

Compared to other e-books the Harper edition is actually on the cheap side. I Came To Play The Science Of Rhythm Guitar The Complete on this page. ;-) In the US, there is one edition, and it's $9.99 a book, agency fixed pricing. And since I know that the author is dead, that's above my gag limit. I'm not sure what I'll do about it, probably nothing. It'll be a couple of years before I'm ready to re-read the series, and I may buy the eBooks then, or simply listen to them on Audible. If the price stays at $10, however, I doubt I'll be willing to pay that.

Author by: Michael Leigh Sinowitz Language: en Publisher by: McFarland Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 40 Total Download: 417 File Size: 55,6 Mb Description: An exploration of the complex roles that bodies--both literally and figuratively--play in the 21 volume Aubrey-Maturin series reveals much about the novels' many meditations on mind and body. Beginning with a consideration of genre norms and the bodies of the novels' main characters, the book's focus shifts to the ways the series offers interconnections between the human body and history. More literal considerations of the body examine O'Brian's depictions of drug use, particularly the opium addiction that afflicts Stephen Maturin, and human sexuality in its many guises. The work then focuses on Desolation Island, the fifth novel in the series, in light of the discussions above but also in terms of political and psychological tropes that draw upon the relationship of mind and body.

Questions are examined about the relationship of reader to author, and what sustains such a long narrative and what continues to bring a reader back again and again. Author by: Charles Finch Language: en Publisher by: Hachette UK Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 11 Total Download: 185 File Size: 43,5 Mb Description: Charles Lenox, Member of Parliament, sets sail on a clandestine mission for the government. When an officer is savagely murdered, however, Lenox is drawn toward his old profession, determined to capture another killer. 1873 is a perilous time in the relationship between France and England. When a string of English spies is found dead on French soil, the threat of all-out war prompts government officials to ask Charles Lenox to visit the newly-dug Suez Canal on a secret mission. Once he is on board the Lucy, however, Lenox finds himself using not his new skills of diplomacy but his old ones: the ship's second lieutenant is found dead on the voyage's first night, his body cruelly abused. The ship's captain begs the temporarily retired detective to join in the hunt for a criminal.

Lenox finds the trail, but in the claustrophobic atmosphere on board, where nobody can come or go and everyone is a suspect, he has to race against the next crime - and also hope he won't be the victim.
