<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>These five volumes are a perfect gift for the serious O'Brian enthusiast. Now, four years after O'Brian's death, his estate has agreed to release the chapters of the novel he was working on when he died. It is both fitting and moving that in these pages we are given a glimpse of Jack Aubrey raising his admiral's flag at last.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Patrick O'Brian's twenty-one-volume Aubrey/Maturin series has delighted generations of devoted fans, inspired a blockbuster film, and sold millions of copies in twenty-four languages. These five omnibus volumes, beautifully produced and boxed, contain 7,000 pages of what has often been described as a single, continuous narrative. They are a perfect tribute for such a literary achievement, and a perfect gift for the O'Brian enthusiast.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[O'Brian's novels] will outlive most of today's putative literary gems as Sherlock Holmes has outlived Bulwer-Lytton, as Mark Twain has outlived Charles Reade.--David Mamet "New York Times"<br><br>Like John le Carré, [O'Brian] has erased the boundary separating a debased genre from 'serious' fiction. O'Brian is a novelist, pure and simple, one of the best we have.--Mark Horowitz "Los Angeles Times Book Review"<br><br>No writer alive can move one as O'Brian can. . . . He is the master.--Kevin Myers "Irish Press"<br>
