" Sharpe leads a diversionary force into France together with a group of riflemen and marines. As they are abandoned in France by the Royal Navy we get a glimpse into defensive fighting tactics of the time, portrayed by Sharpe and offensive tactics by general Calve. Definitely a good 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. "

" It might be formulaic but Cornwell is a master of the historical warfare genre, particularly in its Napoleonic variation. The reader gets what he pays for: an exciting, page turning novel, where the end is never in doubt, but the way there is never clear. "

" This book was a mix of the usual Richard Sharpe action: part intrigue, part battle. I felt this book was lighter somehow, fewer pages with less historic detail. Overall, a fast and entertaining read. "

" As usual, the action is raw and ferocious. Sharpe tangles with a pompous British Naval officer, French spies, an American privateer, and the French Army in order to open the way into France for Wellington.
