Undertow by quigonejinn (R)
Fandom: HORATIO HORNBLOWER
Pairing: Horatio Hornblower/William Bush

Author Website:NA
Why this must be read:
Undertow is based entirely in the Hornblower bookverse but completely accessible to those without knowledge of the books. The language is sparse and beautiful and communicates the distance, duty and sheer loneliness that surrounds the lives of both of these men except for those fleeting moments throughout the long history of their service together when they briefly touch. The author deftly moves through the chronology of the novels using them as reference points for time and place. Each moment when they come together strongly marked and strongly remembered.
Highly recommended.
