Review: MR MIDSHIPMAN HORNBLOWER by CS Forster

This is the first of the Hornblower novels, a series set in the British Navy during the Napoleonic Wars. For decades I liked stories of the sea, from long before my Navy days. When my lovely wife got a subscription to Audible, they were some of the books I wanted to listen to. 

Unfortunately, I started the series around the time I was really working through what I believed, and I found I couldn't enjoy it. Though it's very well-researched, -written, and -performed, it's still about one group of people for whom Christ died killing another, and I can't recommend it.
