Format:Paperback
I am reading my way through the Richard Sharpe series and if you like historical drama then this is right up your street. The descriptive writting takes you right to the time and place and you live the story yourself as you read it. Well worth the purchase

This is an excellent book, but take care it was first published in 1981 so you may already have it on your book case!

Incrediable read. Non-stop action and story never lets you go. Sharpe is as daring as ever, Harper is as comical and the battles are as visual.
I love the new book cover artwork.

Good but not that good
Sharpe's Gold follows a different story compared to the episode and I dare say it has proven to be less exciting and disjointed. Read more

Not his best
A good read, but agree with some of the other reviews, certainly not a Sharpe classic. Without giving away the ending, found it a little out of character and in general the book... Read more

Sharpe's Gold
Having read all of the sharpe series and watched the TV programmes. I'm a bit biased to these books, if you love military history, the napoleonic wars or have read Hornblower. Read more
