Why this must be read:
This is a bookverse story, but it's set during the events of Retribution and Loyalty.eyebrowofdoom paints a vivid picture of Horatio Hornblower, as seen by William Bush and of Bush as seen by himself. She has a true gift for a beautifully turned phrase -- "his flesh was unmoved by his will the way the sea is unmoved by a swimmer", "before Hornblower, Bush had not known that fancy was the underside of brilliance" -- equal parts elegance and illumination. Everything about this story reads as real and human and possible; it's lovelyand intense, awkward and terrifically sexy.
