Hornblower... hmm. Basic summary is Sharpe on ships with a less growly and manly hero ;) That's pretty much it. Upper class version of Sharpe, very polite and dignified and rising through the ranks at approximately same rate as Sharpe did. Also, very, very much about honour, loyalty and solidarity between allies, the kind of ideals that Alfred seems to hold with :D
