Halfway through the series. A lot of this book is in the Russel Crowe movie of the same name. Though the movie borrows from other books in the series.

Waaaaaayyyyy better than the excellent movie. Stephen Maturin is far more complicated, capable, and complimentary to Jack Aubrey.

If you’ve never read any of these please please please read #3, HMS Surprise. If you read it and don’t like it we’re different.
