Synopsis
Patrick O'Brian is far and away the best of the Napoleonic storytellers, and his new book, The Hundred Days, is the 19th in a series telling of the adventures of Captain Jack Aubrey of the Royal Navy and his friend, Dr. Stephen Maturin. It is also one of the best of the series; a classic naval adventure, crammed with incident, superbly plotted and utterly gripping. In our exclusive feature, Bernard Cornwell, author of the celebrated Richard Sharpe novels (and a fair Napoleonic storyteller himself) reviews the penultimate book in the celebrated Aubrey-Maturin series.

They're funny, they're exciting, they're informative. There are legions of us who gladly ship out time and time again under Captain Aubrey.
