In their 16th outing, Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin pursue a prize into the Great Southern Ocean.

The story takes Maturin to South America. Caught up in a failed coup, he flees across the Andes. Aubrey makes a desperate voyage in a open boat, but both survive and are reunited.

Patrick Tull is the best reader for the O’Brian series. Pigott-Smith is too nasal in his character voices.

Reader not good

Patrick O'Brian's books are like an old friend. I started listening to this before I realized it was an abridged version. Once I realized my mistake I returned it for the full version. I liked what I heard from this reader but I would not miss large sections of the book for anything and Patrick Tull's narration is excellent.

Be aware. Abridged version.

Really angry at Audible for selling abridged versions for same price as full books. After many years I will look for a different publisher.

Do not buy abridged versions!
