A lot of early Horatio Hornblower fic is no longer online. Stories for which I can no longer find active links have been removed from this recs set.

Hornblower Recs for All Occasions

Part I: I just watched The Duel/The Even Chance and all I could think by the end was 'My God, the slash!' Also, I've fallen in love with Archie Kennedy. (Duel-Era Fic)

Ah the joys of young midshipmen in love. The Duel is a rich source of material for stories about young, clueless Archie and Horatio fumbling their way towards love. At 17 or 18 Horatio's cluelessness is not yet frustrating and still rather endearing and the dark presence of Jack Simpson over everything and the knowledge of how the episode ends, lends a strangely poignant note to even the happiest of Duel-era stories.

Tutelage by widget285 - This is along story that fits perfectly entirely within and alongside the events of The Duel.

widget285 creates a perfect balance between the growing attraction of Horatio and Archie and the growing tension with Jack Simpson. Slowly and in parallel, she ratchets up both the giddy attraction and the crushing tension until in both cases something simply has to give. The story told here is at times painful, but at heart its incredibly hopeful; embracing change and love and the infinite possibilities of youth.
