"The Aubrey-Maturin series nears the two dozen mark the way it began,
with colorful historical background, smooth plotting, marvelous characters and great
style. O'Brian continues to unroll a splendid Turkish rug of a saga."
Publishers Weekly

"The Hundred Days may be the best installment yet in a stalwart series. I give
O'Brian's fans joy of it and hope that other readers will be lucky enough to discover one
of the best novelists since Jane Austen."Philadelphia Inquirer

"[T]eems with amusing scenes, vivid dialog, glib phrase-making, and the tall-tale-spinner's
gift for never taking the picaresque adventures of his characters seriously."
Library Journal

When Napoleon escapes from Elba, the fate of Europe hinges on a desperate mission:
Stephen Maturin must ferret out the French dictator's secret link to the powers of Islam,
and Jack Aubrey must destroy it. Napoleon, like a vengeful phoenix, pursues his enemies
across Europe. If he can corner the British and Prussians before their Russian and Austrian
allies arrive, his genius will lead the French armies to triumph at Waterloo.

In the Balkans, a horde of Muslim mercenaries is gathering in support of Napoleon, but they
will not move without a shipment of gold ingots, which is on its way via camel caravan to the
coast of North Africa. It is this gold that Aubrey and Maturin must intercept at all costs.

Have you always loved reading but sometimes find it hard to find the time? Theres nothing quite like curling up with a good book but many of us cannot do that as much as we would llike. We sacrifice this special time because we have so many other things to do each day. It is a common problem and it is the reason why people on average are not reading as much as they once did. Audio books bring the story to life just as the storytellers of the past did. They allow you to experience the book in a whole new way; in the way the writer felt and heard it in their head. You can feel the emotion when you allow audio books to let the story come to life.
