À propos de cet audio

In The Mauritius Command, Captain Jack Aubrey is ashore on half-pay without a command until his friend, occasional intelligence agent Stephen Maturin, arrives with secret orders for Aubrey to take a frigate to the Cape of Good Hope under a Commodore's pennant. But the difficulties of carrying out his orders are compounded by two of his own captains: one a pleasure-seeking dilettante, the other liable to provoke the crew to mutiny.

Based on an actual campaign of 1810 in the Indian Ocean, O'Brien's attention to the detail of early 19th-century life ashore and at sea is meticulous. This tale is as beautifully written and as gripping as any in the series; it also stands on its own as a superlative work of fiction.

You'll want to have a pencil and paper handy to follow the many encounters at sea, ashore and betwixt the two. As always, delightfully enacted by Mr. Jerom.

Plenty of Action!

Fantastic narration and an amazing story. I've read these books before, but the audio books are so well done that it brings new life to the stories.

Amazing
