About the Books
Bernard Cornwell's Richard Sharpe novels are among the most celebrated works of British historical military fiction, and this ten-book set gathers together the stories that trace Sharpe's earliest campaigns. In Sharpe's Tiger and Sharpe's Triumph, a young Sharpe serves as a private and sergeant in India, surviving the tyranny of Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill and the siege of Seringapatam under Sir Arthur Wellesley. Sharpe's Fortress continues his Indian adventures at the fearsome Gawilghur ravine, while Sharpe's Trafalgar sees him crossing paths with Admiral Nelson's fleet on his voyage home. Sharpe's Prey takes him to Copenhagen on a dangerous mission of espionage and betrayal as Britain races to stop Napoleon seizing the Danish fleet. The remaining titles - Sharpe's Rifles, Sharpe's Havoc, Sharpe's Eagle, Sharpe's Gold and Sharpe's Escape - follow Sharpe into the thick of the Peninsular War in Portugal and Spain, where he leads his green-jacketed riflemen through ambushes, sieges and pitched battles, forging his reputation as one of Wellington's most formidable officers. Each novel combines meticulously researched history with pace, wit and unforgettable characters, including Sharpe's loyal comrade Patrick Harper. Together, these ten books offer a sweeping introduction to one of fiction's great anti-heroes: a working-class soldier who claws his way up through a class-bound army purely on courage, cunning and sheer bloody-mindedness. Perfect for readers who love the Napoleonic era, military strategy and larger-than-life heroes, this set delivers hours of gripping, immersive storytelling from one of the genre's finest historical novelists.
