"The French take another hammering from Cornwell, this time set in the Hundred Years War. Typical Cornwell: colourful characters, intense battles and bits of humour thrown in."
"Don't bother reading the Sharpe books chronologically, read them as Cornwell wrote them, starting here. Tough commoner gets promoted to officer and leads rogues against the French."
"If you like Cornwell you'll like this. Two heroes, one an intelligent recruit, one a battle-hardened centurion, fight in the Roman army as it invades Britain. Battles and humour galore."
