Trade Review
"I haven’t read novels [in the past ten years] except for all of the Patrick O’Brian series. It was, unfortunately, like tripping on heroin. I started on those books and couldn’t stop." -- E. O. Wilson - Boston Globe
"Addictively readable." -- Chicago Tribune
"They're funny, they're exciting, they're informative. . . there are legions of us who gladly ship out time and time again under Captain Aubrey." -- The New Yorker
"lf Jane Austen had written rousing sea yarns, she would have produced something very close to the prose of Patrick O'Brian." -- Time
