I am a brand new, and obnoxious, fan. Pushing them on any literate soul I come across. The language is a delight, as are the honest portraits of flawed, imperfect human beings.

Found the last by accident, then began over with Master and Commander. Can't wait for the movie. If it's great, it'll make the rest of the books that much more enjoyable. If it's terrible, it'll make the books that much more enjoyable!
