The excitement continues in Post Captain , the second installment of Patrick O’Brian’s highly acclaimed Aubrey-Maturin series, following Master and Commander .

In 1803, Napoleon smashes the Peace of Amiens, and Captain Jack Aubrey, taking refuge in France from his creditors, is interned. He escapes from France, from debtor’s prison, and from a possible mutiny and pursues his quarry straight into the mouth of a French-held harbor. Stephen Maturin’s struggles, with himself as much as with a proud and intelligent woman, are woven into Aubrey’s, straining their friendship at times to the breaking point.
