Negative Positive
Title: Series has wound down
Review: This is the 25th novel in Kent's Bolitho series. I've read them all up to this one, but this will be the last one. The stories have gotten progressively more wrapped up in angst and moral breast-beating, to the expense of the action that characterized the earlier books. This book might have about 25 pages of actual action at sea, along with 340 pages of emotional entanglements, social injustices, and general moaning. I hope later books improve, but somebody will have to tell me about them, because I don't intend to waste any more of my time.
