Review

'The same combination of thorough research and narrative drive that distinguished its predecessors. It is a gripping read.' Independent Praise for Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe novels: 'Sharpe is a great creation' Daily Mirror 'Consistently exciting! these are wonderful novels' Stephen King 'What makes these books such a successful formula is the blend of action, well-researched historical setting, colourful characterization and a juicy sub-plot' The Times


Product Description

A classic Sharpe adventure: Richard Sharpe and the Winter Campaign, 1814. The invasion of France is under way, and the British Navy has called upon the services of Major Richard Sharpe. He and a small force of Riflemen are to capture a fortress and secure a landing on the French coast. It is to be one of the most dangerous missions of his career. Through the incompetence of a recklessly ambitious naval commander and the machinations of his old enemy, French spymaster Pierre Ducos, Sharpe finds himself abandoned in the heart of enemy territory, facing overwhelming forces and the very real prospect of defeat. He has no alternative but to trust his fortunes to an American privateer -- a man who has no love for the British invaders.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great Diplomatic, Strategic, and Tactical Intrigue as Sharpe Repeatedly Cuts the Opposition Down to Size, Jui 30 2009

"He [Abishai, the brother of Joab] lifted his spear against three hundred men, killed them, and won a great name among these three." -- 2 Samuel 23:18

If you like stories about facing insuperable odds in battle with steadfastness, wiliness, and courage, Sharpe's Siege will be one of your very favorite books in this delightful series. This book delivers lots of unexpected events and conflicts which seem impossible to overcome. What will Major Sharpe do next?

The war against France is finally winding down as the British-led forces expand into southern France from Spain. With a change in leadership, Sharpe finds himself to be an extra officer . . . but one who is well suited for impossible tasks. While the British Navy dreams of launching a rebellion against Napoleon, Sharpe's true orders are to be sure that enough fishing vessels are seized from a tottering fortress so that a critical bridge can be built to facilitate invasion.

Sharpe's uneasy because illness plagues the British. Will his beloved be safe while he is away?

The naval officers decide to trick Sharpe, but he saves their bacon when a plan of attack turns out to be woefully inadequate. In one of the most humorous moments in the series, Sergeant Harper's sore tooth plays a key strategic role.

But in the background, the shadowy "Major" Pierre Ducos, Napoleon's man, has a plan to destroy Sharpe in order to repay the British rifleman for breaking Ducos' glasses in Spain. The plan works all too well, and Sharpe finds himself outnumbered, outgunned, and outmaneuvered. Can he counter such diabolical preparations?

Americans will especially like this book for the large role that a privateer crew plays in the story. Those who enjoy having lots of battles in a Sharpe novel will feel like they got their money's worth from Sharpe's Siege.

5.0étoiles sur 5 One of the best, if not THE best, Fév 5 2003
This review is from: Sharpes Siege (Paperback)
When a quick raid on a French fort falls victim to cowardice and miscommunication it is up to Richard Sharp and his men to dig in and defend themselves. Can Sharp get his men out alive with nothing but their guns and an American privateer who may or may not be a friend? Lots of action and good battle scenes an excellent Cornwell book.

This particular edition of the Sharp's series is one of my particular favorites. My favorite character Patrick Harper has a notable part to play(b y which I mean the part played by his seven barreled navy gun). If you are one of those people that likes to start a series from the middle and work your way back this is an excellent book to start with

5.0étoiles sur 5 Tne Best of the Sharpe Series, Jui 11 2002
Par James G. Butler "andreiib" (Antioch, TN USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sharpes Siege (Paperback)
It becomes quite clear to me that Bernard Cornwell must have an incompetent agent because any one of his novels have better dialogue, stronger characters, more vivid settings, and by far, more exciting action than an entire year's worth of the [junk] that Hollywood puts out. The Sean Bean series, while ably acted, was a travesty to the scale and the detail of Cornwell's books. You can't low budget Cornwell. If they can throw 100 million bucks to turn a one dimensional comic book character into a movie then they can certainly risk some on Cornwell. Russell Crowe would be nice.
This book is exciting from beginning to end with a cliffhanger escape for Sharpe as thrilling as any I've seen. Cornwell also pokes a little fun at Sharpe's gullibility which is a humorous (and welcome) popping of the bubble of this man's iron immortality.
Personally I have found the Warlord series to be Cornwell's best writing but this book is one of his best.
