A review by greerd
Lieutenant Hornblower by C.S. Forester

5.0

Possibly my favourite of the series. We get to see our hero through another character's (mostly approving) eyes, we get to meet Bush, we get to see H being a fighting hero and an intellectual powerhouse, we get a mad captain and a mutiny, we get hurt/comfort (H cradling Bush's face as he slips into unconsciousness, H bringing Bush a fruit basket and lemonade as he recovers *heart eyes*), Bush finding H living in poverty after the war and H being all noble about it...

Basically they're my babies and I love them.
