The Three Midshipmen by William Henry Giles Kingston audiobook.
Genre: adventure
In The Three Midshipmen, W.H.G. Kingston drops listeners onto the gun decks and quarterdecks of the Royal Navy, where three teenage midshipmen begin their lives at sea with more courage than experience. Bound together by friendship and rivalry, they must learn the hard rules of discipline, seamanship, and leadership while serving under demanding officers and facing enemies who do not forgive mistakes. From crowded ports to lonely watches at midnight, their world is shaped by sudden squalls, cramped hammocks, strict routine, and the constant possibility of action. As the ship is driven into danger by war and weather alike, the boys are tested in ways no classroom could prepare them for: split-second decisions aloft, tense encounters with hostile vessels, and moments when loyalty to shipmates matters as much as bravery. Kingston blends brisk nautical detail with coming-of-age stakes, showing how character is forged through duty, loss, and hard-won competence. The result is a classic sea story about friendship, honor, and earning your place on a ship where the ocean is always the final judge.

The Mutiny of the Bounty and other narratives by William Bligh audiobook.
Genre: history
Written by Captain William Bligh, The Mutiny of the Bounty and other narratives presents a first-hand, seafaring account of one of the most famous uprisings in naval history and the perilous journeys that followed. Bligh sets the stage aboard His Majesty's Ship Bounty, sent across the Pacific on a high-stakes mission tied to empire, commerce, and the transport of breadfruit. As months at sea strain supplies, patience, and discipline, Bligh's demanding command style collides with an exhausted crew, and the simmering tensions crystallize around his master, Fletcher Christian. When loyalty fractures, Bligh must confront not only the immediate crisis aboard ship but the larger ordeal of leadership, responsibility, and survival in unforgiving waters. Alongside the central narrative, the accompanying accounts broaden the portrait of exploration-era voyaging: hard choices made far from home, the constant calculation of wind and current, and the thin margin between order and disaster. Stark, practical, and intensely human, these narratives invite listeners into the day-to-day reality of 18th century naval life, where authority is tested and endurance becomes its own form of navigation.

Green Mansions by William Henry Hudson audiobook.
Genre: romance
'Green Mansions: A Romance of the Tropical Forest' is a narration of his life story by Abel, a Venezuelan, to a comrade. Once a wealthy young man, he meddled in politics to the extent of provoking a revolution... which failed.
Escaping into the tropical forests of Guyana Abel takes up gold hunting, then journal-writing, and fails at both. Now with no aim for his life, he drifts until he takes up residence with a remote Indian tribe. Soon he learns of a wood the Indians avoid, as it is inhabited by a dangerous Daughter of the Didi, who, they say, slew one of them with magic. The fellow was in fact hit with a poisoned dart by accident, but his dying belief that she had caught the dart and hurled it at him survived him.
Intrigued, Abel visits the wood repeatedly, and eventually encounters Rima. She indeed is something magical. She seems to have a pact with nature: animals don't molest her, she speaks in a melodious birdsong (as well as Spanish), and she even makes her garments of spider silk. When Abel is bitten by a venomous snake that acts protective of her, she and her 'grandfather' Nuflo nurse Abel back to health.
Both Abel and Rima are wonderments to each other, someone unlike any other person they have ever encountered. They fall in love, a love that is stymied by Rima's inability to understand the feelings Abel creates in her. On a long trek to discover Rima's origins, they find that her unique people no longer exist, but they finally confront the magnetism that is drawing them together. Finally they find joy, and make plans... until Rima is murdered by the Indians.
And then it is time for vengeance!
