I am so sad its done but this series has been the absolute most fun I have ever had reading. Those of you who told me that it was much better than the Hornblower series-- boy were you right.

So what next? What else out there scratches this itch for you?

I love Mr. Tull, I have circumnavigated with him at the helm 4 or 5 times. And I'd love to try the voyage with someone else narrating. Any way to do this on the cheap? Thank you in advance.

I am taking a break in my third (audio) circumnavigation to read (listen to) “This Thing of Darkness” by Harry Thompson. It’s historical fiction based on the journeys of the Beagle, with Charles Darwin aboard for the second one.

I’m enjoying it a lot and I’d think fans of POB’s series would enjoy as well.

Others who have read it, what did you think?
