The Final Unfinished Voyage of Jack Aubrey (Aubrey-Maturin, Book 21)

di Patrick O'Brian (Autore)

Robert Hardy (Narratore)

HarperCollins, 2017

The adventure continues . . . At the time of his death, Patrick O'Brian had begun to write the twenty-first book in his famous and much-loved Aubrey–Maturin series. The chapters he left behind are presented here, both in printed version and a facsimile of his manuscript, which goes several pages beyond the end of the typescript and includes O’Brian’s own marginal notes. The story picks up from the end of Blue at the Mizzen when Jack Aubrey receives the news, in Chile, of his elevation to flag rank: Rear Admiral of the Blue Squadron, with orders to sail to the South Africa station. ‘This fragment is both delightful and tantalising, with hints of a plot that might have involved Jack and Stephen with St Helena or Napoleon himself.’ Literary Review Patrick O'Brian, the bestselling author, once again proves his mastery in the historical fiction genre with this book. The action-packed narrative keeps the readers on the edge of their seats. For fans of Simon Scarrow (Eagles of the Empire I, II, and III), and Robert Harris (V2).
