@Kirkman Joshua Corey, who blogs the Aubrey-Maturin Review, has a footnote in a separate post about "Bartleby the Scrivener" on Davies's devotion to Jack. Since Jack saved Davies from drowning, Jack providing for him is an "obscure justice", even if Davies could be a handful. https://joshuacorey.substack.com/p/bartleby-boys?utm_source=publication-search#footnote-anchor-1-148123935

@annathepiper Yes, definitely the world-building feels a part of lots of good Star Trek writing.

An older essay on Reactor covers this ground too: https://reactormag.com/not-a-moment-to-be-lost-patrick-obrians-aubrey-maturin-series/

@electrafish Like the time O'Brian forgot Babbington's first name and had Fanny Harte call him Charles instead of William. Then he has Stephen call her out on it in a later book!

I just watched Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (Peter Weir, 2003) and rated it 7/10 ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_and_Commander%3A_The_Far_Side_of_the_World?wprov=sfla1 #films #cinema #cinemastodon #MasterAndCommander #PeterWeir #RussellCrowe

Unbelievable I have forgotten to add tags related to #MasterAndCommander series of books (a whole epos and universe really) created by outstanding #PatrickOBrian.

I walked my way to this from a number of #historicalfiction books throughout the years, but this is in a league of its own when it comes to naval history, British history, politics and leadership.

PS. Don’t miss an astonishingly great podcast The Lubber’s Hole.

I don't know where all the Patrick O'Brian peeps are, but hopefully they will show themselves soon.

I have either read or listened to the Master and Commander series of books countless times now, and I have been working really hard to learn Spanish. So, I am taking a new circumnavigation through the series in Spanish this time.

A glorious set of books, and so much better and more than the movie.
