" Not much to add to what I have already written about Sharpe-series. It's like pop corn - once you start, you can't stop, but it will never really fill your belly. But as long as you take those books for what they are - a guilty pleasure and a quick, fun read - a book about Richard Sharpe is always an enjoyable experience. "

" One from his back catalogue that I hadn't read before. He's my guilty secret on the literary front... But as ever it is a well told story woven around a relatively accurate history lesson. "

" A fun installment in an entertaining fictional historical series. On the one hand, Cornwell, over time, has permitted his characters to become so much larger than life, so vivid, so robust, so cunning, that they feel like parading caricatures. Conversely, Cornwell understands what his readers enjoy, and he dishes it out in large ladles. It's always fascinating to see which characters (and, here, objects) Cornwell jettisons with the swipe of a pen, and which he retains for further use. This won't be the last Sharpe book I read.... "

" The Richard Sharpe series is a magnificent work of historical fiction. Bernard Cornwell has written an amazing series following Sharpe from a private in India to a Lt. Colonel at Waterloo and then a civilian farmer. "

" An excellent book. Deviating a little from the fighting and going more into the cloak and dagger. Sharpe of course goes after a girl, what else did you expect. But does he get her? "

" A duel, a beautiful woman, a French spymaster, a Spanish Inquisitor, and a French army trying to escape Wellington with a baggage train of plunder keep Sharpe VERY occupied. Non-stop action during the 1813 Vitoria campaign.
