Any other Patrick O'Brian fans here?

I tend to read through the novels once every couple of years or so and I'm about to start again. Every time I find some new reason to love those books. (Saying "he wrote about the Navy" is like saying "Proust wrote about gardening".)

...and wanted to check in.

I do the same, re-read every few years.

I also have been slowly collecting the Border's audio-books with Patrick Tull as the narrator and I listen to those as much as I can.

Love the voices that Tull invents while he reads.
