A review by greaydean
Master and Commander by Patrick O'Brian
4.0
Lots of descriptions of boats. I grabbed my dictionary.
Lots of descriptions of oceans and places near the ocean. I grabbed my atlas.
Good character development. I wonder what will happen next.
I did this on audio, so while some nuance was lost, because of understatement that can turn on a single word. But then again, the reader let me catch nuance (and laugh) that I would have missed if I had been reading. Great fun!
Heavy dense and riveting reading, unlike other things from last century.
