About this listen
Captain Jack Aubrey, RN, arrives in the Dutch East Indies to find himself appointed to the command of the fastest and best-armed frigate in the Navy. He and his friend Stephen Maturin take passage for England in a despatch vessel. But the War of 1812 breaks out while they are en route. Bloody actions precipitate them both into new and unexpected scenes where Stephen's past activities as a secret agent return on him with a vengeance.

More of the same, but grand
Although there is a similarity in the Master and Commander books I still find each one interesting and satisfying.

terrific
story line as good as all previous, and as a sailor it really comes alive for me. the narration is truly excellent, lifting the prose into a vivid play.

A superb story, compellingly told
I read this story many years ago as part of the series but had not recalled its power nor the pleasing style. it's much more than a way point in the story. it's a masterpiece in its own right.

Boring narrator
I expected more from this book after watching Master,and,Commander. The narrator was boring,and,annoying. It could not hold my interest. It was very disappointing,and,in my opinion not worth the money.
