Hornblower: Duty
The Hornblower series draws inspiration from C.S. Forester’s timeless seafaring tales, chronicling the journey of a young man striving to emerge as a leader. The narrative unfolds during the tumultuous 18th-century Anglo-French conflicts, a particularly brutal era in British naval history. During Hornblower’s wedding celebration, Admiral Pellew disrupts the festivities with a mission: to find a missing British vessel near the French shoreline, where Napoleon’s forces are conducting secret operations.
