My introduction into the series was with an audio book in German. I ordered some used soft covers for the next few volumes in English, and when I was neck deep in I finally splurged on the boxed complete collection in hard cover. I finished my first circumnavigation just a few weeks ago.
Why good sir, I have never yet known a man to admit that he was either rich or asleep. Mine is HarperCollins’ boxed set edition. Folio Society, forsooth.
I’ve considered trying Vance, but having finished Tull I think it would feel strange to hear different voices for the characters. I didn’t choose a narrator consciously; I think Tull was just what I found on Audible.
I was pretty disappointed after purchasing Vance's Master and Commander because shortly thereafter, the Vance versions disappeared from Downpour. That's why I ended up with Tull's Post Captain. I did find CDs of the rest of the Vance series on Amazon, but ripping dozens of discs is tedious.
Understandable! I will say that, if the King’s yards aren’t providing what you need to continue your voyage, there’s already the option to go privateer. It’s not something I’ve really done, but there it is.
Great! I liked Patrick Tull’s version, but Simon Vance is also appreciated, as you see from the other comment. I think I heard there is another narrator now too?
So. This is the version of reality where I randomly stumble on high quality Jack Aubrey gif memes, is it? Better than a shove in the eye with a dry stick.
