Set in the Royal Navy during the early 19th Century's Napoleonic Wars, O'Brian's epic, twenty-volume "masterpiece" (David Mamet, New York Times) traces the enduring friendship between naval officer Jack Aubrey and physician (and spy) Stephen Maturin. Their sharp wit, heart-stopping action, and exquisitely rendered backdrop have earned millions of devoted fans worldwide as well as comparisons from C. S. Forester, to Jane Austen, to Shakespeare. In the over forty years since their initial publication in the United States, these "addictively readable" (Patrick T. Reardon, Chicago Tribune) stories have become a beloved part of the canon.

Including volumes one - Master and Commander - through three- H. M. S. Surprise - this first installment precedes the release of volumes four through twenty over the coming year. Every one of these beautifully redesigned editions are sure to be treasured by Patrick O'Brian enthusiasts and welcome generations of new readers to one of the greatest literary sagas of all time.

Industry Reviews

"Master and Commander raised almost dangerously high expectations, Post Captain triumphantly surpasses them... a brilliant book." -- Mary Renault
"[Patrick O'Brian] has created characters and stories that are part of my life.... His Aubrey-Maturin series, 20 novels of the Royal Navy in the Napoleonic Wars, is a masterpiece." -- David Mamet - New York Times
