BLUE AT THE MIZZEN

This abridgment continues the late O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin series. It takes the pair of up-and-coming Royal Navy stars to the post-Napoleonic independence struggles in South America. Full of action, historical detail, and unforgettable characters, this work is handsomely performed by Tim Pigott-Smith. The experienced actor has a stately voice that does justice to the dialogue and is splendid when performing the battle scenes. M.T.F. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 02]
