Horatio Hornblower: The Adventure Continues DVD set:

  • The Mutiny
  • Retribution

    As The Mutiny opens, Hornblower is languishing in a prison cell in Kingston, Jamaica, jailed for his role in removing the deranged Capt. Sawyer from his command aboard the HMS Renown. Visited by Capt. Pellew, his former commander and mentor, Hornblower revisits the harrowing events that have brought him to face court martial.

    The saga continues in Retribution, as Hornblower reveals to the court the details of an assault on a Spanish fort that succeeded in large part because of his gallantry. Despite these heroics, Hornblower's fate remains in question--until a surprise witness removes the shadow of doubt cast across the young sailor by Captain Sawyer and his cronies.
