From Library Journal
When Forester died in 1966, he was working on his 11th Hornblower novel. Published posthumously, this unfinished story begins where Hornblower and the Hotspur ends. It is set on the eve of the Battle of Trafalgar in which the British demolished the combined Spanish and French fleets in 1805. How that decisive battle came about is the subject of Crisis, in which Hornblower accepts a dangerous espionage mission that helps draw the French into battle. Although the manuscript ends before the character actually begins his mission, it provides some fine naval action. This book also contains two previously uncollected storiesAone set in the naval hero's midshipman days, the other in 1848, when Hornblower is admiral of the navy. It's an indispensable part of any Hornblower collection, and most listeners will find Christian Rodska's reading preferable to that of Books on Tape's Gary Martin.AR.

From AudioFile
[Editor's Note: The following is a combined review with HORNBLOWER IN THE WEST INDIES.]--Chivers Audio has a knack for choosing just the right reader, and Christian Rodska is marvelous as an interpreter of C.S. Forester's famous, self-conscious naval hero of the Napoleonic era, Horatio Hornblower. Rodska offers the accents of England with raspy good humor, rising tension during the action scenes, and thoughtful cadences during times of quiet and rumination. The West Indies title is complete as originally published and consists of several intertwined novellas, while the CRISIS is a last, unfinished novel to which are added a couple of unrelated Hornblower short stories. Nothing goes wrong in this first-class presentation. D.R.W. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
