Story
This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, Royal Navy, and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against the thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war in Nelson's navy are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the road of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.

Publisher's Summary
Agincourt is classic Cornwell...[with] attention to historical detail, well-paced action, and descriptive writing that is a pleasure to read." (Boston Globe)
Bernard Cornwell, the New York Times best-selling "reigning king of historical fiction" (USA Today), tackles his most thrilling, rich, and enthralling subject yet - the heroic tale of Agincourt. The epic battle immortalized by William Shakespeare in his classic Henry V is the background for this breathtaking tale of heroism, love, devotion, and duty from the legendary author of the Richard Sharpe novels and the Saxon Tales. This extraordinary adventure will captivate from minute one, proving once again and most powerfully, as author Lee Child attests, that "nobody in the world does this stuff better than Cornwell."
What the critics say
"Nobody in the world does this stuff better than Cornwell. (Lee Child, author of Nothing to Lose)
"Readers who haven't discovered Bernard Cornwell don't know what they are missing....He may well be the best historical novelist writing today -- and Agincourt may well be his best novel yet. (Vince Flynn, author of Extreme Measures)

Solid story
This came up in my suggested titles after listening to the evening and the morning by Ken Follet. Follet is the glistening and ruling king over the land of historical fiction and it is almost impossible to measure up to his storytelling brilliance. Cornwell does his best but is…alas just an archer. Solid story with excellent performance by Charles keating!

Great book, well read!
Great book, and the narrator does an excellent job. There are a few artistic liberties taken with the historical narrative, but these are cleared up in the historical note at the end.

oh my gosh 😱 no plot or character progression!!
Chapter two you’ll read about the back battle antics over and over. Cut off the archers fingers! Listen to the priest molest innocents! Hear the powe of the war bow.
Fast forward ten chapters. Same same same.
It’s. The. Same. Wandering. Story.
I can’t take another chapter. Gotta bale!!
