This thread made me want to start the Aubrey/Maturin series, which I've never read. I do have the first book, bought many years ago, but as I have no particular interest in the Napoleonic era, or in naval stuff for that matter, it has been languishing in calibre. But I've heard so much praise about the series that I'll have to see for myself what the hype is about. I hope it's the characters and plot, not sailing or military stuff (which invariably make my eyes glaze over, no matter how well done).
