Who is POB?

POB= Patrick O'Brian.

Please see www.sea-room.com.

In a nutshell, between 1960 and 2000 Patrick O'Brian wrote 20 novels and
made himself king of the Naval Historic Novel genre.
His series were written in chronological order starting in 1800 and the 20th
is still within Napoleon's lifespan but rumors had hinted that POB's 21st
book would have Admiral Jack Aubrey and Naval Surgeon Stephen Maturin
meeting the tyrant.

Earning the title of cult through their fervency, the POB fans await with
anxiety their confluence with the Russell Crowe fans.  If the new movie,
Master and Commander: the Far Side of the World, prove successful it will
give Crowe fans an Oscar and POB's cult a franchise movie with many
successors and imitators.
