2 down, 9 to go!!

I am loving Horatio Hornblower in print, as well as on DVD. I suspect that having seen the DVD's first, I can tell what's going on - the seafaring lingo is like a foreign tongue.

But the stories are more than just action - there's a lot of inner workings of the characters that makes for compelling reading.

And I dearly love a good series, don't you??
