Publisher's Note
The most recent installment in O'Brian's widely acclaimed series of Aubrey-Maturin novels is in equal parts mystery, adventure, and psychological drama. A British whaler is captured by an ambitious island chief, and Captain Aubrey is dispatched to restore order--amidst dangerous, headhunting cannibals.

Industry Reviews
"[O'Brian is] one of the best storytellers afloat, whose chosen period is the great age of fighting sail but whose works have none of ye olde creaks and groans of period fiction....Mr. O'Brian while telling his yarn writes like a man simply at home in a 500-ton frigate. All the naval minutiae of the early 19th century are evidently in his grasp, but like the Surprise's maintopsails, they are used to drive the book forward, a great show that also has cumulative effect."
New York Times Book Review - Anthony Bailey (05/31/1992)
