Sharpe is back.

The global best seller Bernard Cornwell returns with his iconic hero, Richard Sharpe.

If any man can do the impossible, it's Richard Sharpe....

Lieutenant-Colonel Sharpe is a man with a reputation. Born in the gutter, raised a foundling, he joined the army 21 years ago, and it’s been his home ever since. He’s a loose cannon, but his unconventional methods make him a valuable weapon.

So when, the dust still settling after the Battle of Waterloo, the duke of Wellington needs a favour, he turns to Sharpe. For Wellington knows that the end of one war is only the beginning of another. Napoleon's army may be defeated, but another enemy lies waiting in the shadows—a secretive group of fanatical revolutionaries hell-bent on revenge.

Sharpe is dispatched to a new battleground: the maze of Paris streets where lines blur between friend and foe. And in search of a spy, he will have to defeat a lethal assassin determined to kill his target or die trying....

Another episode in Sharpe's military life. An interesting Tale with some of the traditional military scenes. Not the most epic tale in Sharpe's series but enjoyable nonetheless.

A fitting end?

I'll listen to them all again and leave a review on the individual books, but I listened to the books in chronological order. I've listened to them all within 2 months... I advise you all to do the same.

1 book to go..

Perhaps a little predictable, but still a joy to be reunited with Richard Sharpe and Patrick Harper for one more time. Corn well remains a master storyteller with a keen eye for historical detail. A number of story stories exist about Sharpes time in Normandy which postdates the occupation of Paris, so I never felt that this was the end of the story. I hope this encourages readers to rediscover the joy and energy of the earlier novels. I will certainly start rereading them.
One curious point from the excellent reading is Sharpes strong Yorkshire accent. Born in the gutter of the London Rookeries, a West Yorkshire voice is unlikely. Maybe this is a tribute to the actor Shaun Bean who made the role his own on UK TV. If it is, it's a welcome inconsistency

Eh by gum they talk proper in the London Rookeries

Loved this book. I had hoped and prayed for years we'd get another Sharpe. Was worth the wait. And now Bernard Cornwell is writing another Sharpe :-)

Amazing that Sharpe gets rewarded for services to the author. Love how he gets to settle an old score. And love how there's a tribute to his duel in Sharpe's Honour.....whether it was intentional or not.

Worth the very long wait

the introduction of a Yorkshire accent took a few seconds to adjust too but overall a great book and a great performance

a new Sharpe story is always great and this is no
