Sharpe's Rifles (#1)
Sharpe's Rifles (#1) | Bernard Cornwell
3 posts | 14 read | 3 to read
Bernard Cornwell's action-packed series that captures the gritty texture of Napoleonic warfare--now beautifully repackaged It's 1809, and Napoleon's army is sweeping across Spain. Lieutenant Richard Sharpe is newly in command of the demoralized, distrustful men of the 95th Rifles. He must lead them to safety--and the only way of escape is a treacherous trek through the enemy-infested mountains of Spain.

Because a combo of Sharpe and Aragorn is something you can't say no to. It's Sean, I haven't seen a movie I couldn't die in and Viggo, I'll drive all night to go to a Habs' hockey game. #septphotochallenge

Pickpick

The first on a series. Can be a little rote, as the former enlisted man struggles to overcome class barriers and always seems on the edge of finding love and security. Exciting reads with a set piece battle or two per book.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I haven't read these, but I enjoyed the Sean Bean movies back in the day. Maybe I should give the series a try? 9y
hof1991 They're ok but the movies might be better. I would suggest one or two but the whole series can get repetitive. Not on the level of Patrick O'Brian. 8y
