Description

Amiens-traktaten har sikret freden mellem England og Frankrig, så da Jack Aubrey og Stephen Maturin vender hjem efter deres togt i Middelhavet, kan de tage hul på det søde overklasseliv. Men da Jack med ét slag mister alt, hvad han ejer, må han flygte til Frankrig for at undgå at blive sat i gældsfængsel. Og da krigen atter bryder ud, går der ikke lang tid, før han også er jaget vildt i nabolandet mod syd ... Patrick O’Brians romanserie om kaptajn Jack Aubrey og hans ven, skibslægen Stephen Maturin består af 20 bøger samt et posthumt udgivet og ikke afsluttet 21. bind. Heraf er de første fem udgivet på dansk. Filmen "Master and Commander" fra 2003 med Russell Crowe og Paul Bettany i hovedrollerne er baseret på flere af bøgerne i serien. Den engelske romanforfatter Patrick O’Brian (1914-2000) kom til verden som Richard Patrick Russ og begyndte sin forfatterkarriere under dette navn. Efter Anden Verdenskrig slog han sig ned i Wales, skiftede navn og flyttede senere til Sydfrankrig, hvor han fortsatte med at skrive. Han er verdensberømt for sin romanserie om Jack Aubrey og hans ven Stephen Maturin, der foregår under Napoleonskrigene. Første bog i serien er "Master and Commander" (Den første kommando), der udkom i 1969.
