I'd re-read Post Captain more recently than the later ones in the series. As I had Master and Commander. So this seemed a good place to start.
I seem to be in a "re-read" phase right now both for eBooks and audio books. Probably a bit of burnout, and too many books that aren't as good as I'd hoped. (Or, in some cases, not good at all!) So going back to an old favourite seems to hit the spot. I've just finished a complete re-read of the Millenium Trilogy to get ready for the new book in the series not written by Stieg Larson. And am now starting in again on Phryne Fisher. Not that there's much hope of a new book there -- the author is way too busy writing screenplays for the third season of the ABC presentation of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. And hey, I get it, that's cash money plus residuals. (And an excellent series, I might add, very true to the books, within the limits of TV productions that don't have unlimited budgets.)
