Synopsis of La patente de corso
En esta entrega de la serie Aubrey-Maturin, Jack Aubrey, tras ser apartado de la marina por un delito que no cometió, acepta la oferta de su amigo Maturin de ponerse al mando de la mítica Surprise para hacer corso por el canal de la Mancha. Tras unos extraordinarios éxitos en la lucha contra los franceses, Aubrey parece en una posición inmejorable para que su cargo le sea restituido, y para conseguirlo acepta entrar en política. Una parte importante de la novela se centra en Maturin, quien parece a punto de conseguir reflotar su matrimonio, aunque para ello deberá viajar a Suecia donde, según sus últimas noticias, su esposa tiene un nuevo amante. El tema de la droga (Maturin ha estado experimentando con el láudano y la hoja de coca) es otro de los puntos centrales del relato, así como la música, en este caso las oberturas operísticas italianas.

About the author
Patrick O'Brian
Patrick O'Brian, born Richard Patrick Russ, was an English novelist and translator, best known for his Aubrey–Maturin series. These sea novels are set in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars and centre on the friendship of the English naval captain Jack Aubrey and the Irish–Catalan physician Stephen Maturin. The 20-novel series, the first of which is Master and Commander, is known for its well-researched and highly detailed portrayal of early 19th-century life, as well as its authentic and evocative language. A partially finished 21st novel in the series was published posthumously containing facing pages of handwriting and typescript.
