Critic Reviews:
"What Mr. O'Brian has created is no less than a tapestry of English life in the early 19th century that is almost Dickensian in its scope." (New York Observer)

The Nutmeg
Patrick Tull does his usual great job in narrating this story. This book picks up where the last one left off on a deserted island building a boat to escape. I love the description of Stephen and Martin on their naturalist wanderings. I found the description of the Nutmeg as a sweet smelling ship interesting and then how they had to "sweeten" the Surprise when returning to her. Great sea stories and battles in the exotic Malay seas.
Disappointed
This was my least favorite of the series, and I'm a big fan. The plot was just not there.
outstanding treasure
Brilliant weave of historical content, amazing botanical encounters and naval culture and times. Patrick Tull is the BEST reader/actor. Far better than anyone else. This series is something to treasure...on to Book 15.
A great book in a magnificent series!
Patrick Hull is definitely the narrator that you want for this series. The other guy is simply unacceptably poor in comparison.
Another great Aubrey and Maturin tale.
The opposing strengths and weaknesses of both characters makes this my favorite "Best Buddy" series.
