Book Review of Mr. Midshipman Hornblower (Hornblower, Bk 6)

Mr. Midshipman Hornblower (Hornblower, Bk 6)


The Hornblower series of books are just a wonderful kick to sit back and truly relax with. I get lost in them in a good way. None of them are my typical 'long' book, but each one just a delight of stories, mishaps and adventures as you want Horatio Hornblower 'grow' in his chosen profession. After I finish one I can't wait to read the next one. They are truly charming. If you love the Hornblower series, you will also love the 19 book series by Patrick O'Brian which detail the adventures of Captain Jack Aubrey and his onboard surgeon Dr. Maturin. WONDERFUL SERIES BOTH OF THEM. Don't think if you've read one series that you don't need to read the other. The main characters in each are very different and both series are top rate!
