Product Description

Review

'That every Sharpe novel is better than the last, devotees have long taken for granted, but this masterly narrative! is no less worthy of high praise for that' Times Literary Supplement

Product Description

A classic Sharpe adventure: Richard Sharpe and the Vitoria Campaign, February to June 1813 Major Richard Sharpe awaits the opening shots of the army's new campaign with grim expectancy. Victory depends on the increasingly fragile alliance between Britain and Spain -- an alliance that must be maintained at any cost. But Sharpe's enemy, Pierre Ducos, seizes a chance to both destroy the alliance and take a personal revenge on Sharpe. And when the lovely spy, La Marquesa, takes a hand in the game, Sharpe finds himself caught in a web of deadly intrigue and becomes a fugitive, hunted by enemy and ally alike!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this book..., 19 Jun 2007
By Anna Tigg "booklover" (St Albans, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Sharpe, wrongly accused of murdering La Marquesa's husband after an interrupted duel, goes on the run to clear his name and find the real culprit. Along the way he has to rescue La Marquesa from a convent and a distinctly unpatriotic partisan, and escape from the French, who want to send him into the depths of France as a prisoner of war. Tempted though he is to spend the rest of the war with La Marquesa, he knows he has to get back to the army and his beloved regiment with his knowledge of the treachery cooked up by Major Ducos and a very clever Spanish priest. He escapes as the French fortress at Burgos explodes, and finds his way back to the South Essex in the midst of the Battle of Vitoria. Believing him to be dead, his regiment are naturally startled to see him, though as they have just lost their commanding officer, they are also very relieved to have him to lead them. In the aftermath of the battle Sharpe has to save La Marquesa once again from the treacherous El Maratife, and along the way Harper picks up enough gold and jewels from the French baggage to make his own and Sharpe's fortunes.
This is a fantastic novel, the battle scenes described with Cornwell's usual flair, and all the action in between wonderfully fast-paced and engaging. A brilliant read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 24 May 2001
By Joshua Keighley (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Sharpe's Honour is an excellent book. If you have seen the film, then after you have started reading this book you will see that is much better than the video-all the Sharpe books are. Sharpe's honour is about the battle of Vitoria where Sharpe and Harper make there fortunes. Sharpe also once again meets the beautiful Marquesa. An excellent book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Has Sharpe's weakness for women finally caught up with him?, 17 July 1998
By A Customer
Sharpe, wrongfully acused of murder, sets off in search La Puta Durada in order to clear his name of her husband's murder secretly engineered by Major Ducos. Sharpe, the continual underdog, manages to save his skin once again! Cornwell's work only seems to get better with time and this book is proof of his talent!
