HARPERCOLLINS Bernard Cornwell Richard Sharpe Series 1-10 (10 Books Set)
Soldier, hero, rogue. Sharpe is the man you always want on your side. Born in poverty, he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles whose green jacket he proudly wears. Prey Richard Sharpe is sent to Copenhagen to deliver a bribe to stop the Danes handing over possession of their battle fleet to the French. It seems very easy. But nothing is easy in a Europe stirred by French ambitions. The Danes possess a battle fleet that could replace every ship the French lost at Trafalgar, and Napoleon's forces are gathering to take it. The British have to stop them, while the Danes insist on remaining neutral. Dragged into a war of spies and brutality, Sharpe finds that he is a sacrificial pawn. But pawns can sometimes change the game, and Sharpe makes his own rules. When he discovers a traitor in his midst, he becomes a hunter in a city besieged by British troops. Trafalgar Richard Sharpe, travelling home aboard , meets Admiral Nelson and his fleet, on what was a calm October day off Cape Trafalgar. Fortress Ensign Richard Sharpe, newly made an officer, wishes he had stayed a sergeant after he is put in terrible danger by Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill at the impregnable Gawilghurs ravine. To regain his confidence and his authority, Sharpe will fight as he has never fought before.

But in fleeing Hakeswill, Sharpe enters the exotic and dangerous world of the Tippoo.

Warriors of the Storm 4. The Flame Bearer 5. War of the Wolf 6. Sword of Kings Description: The Pagan Lord Uhtred – sword of the Saxons, bane of the Vikings – has been declared outcast. Peace in Britain has given Uhtred time to cause trouble – for himself. Branded a pagan abomination by the church, he sails north. For, despite suspecting that Viking leader Cnut Longsword will attack the Saxons again, Uhtred is heading for Bebbanburg, fearing that if he does not act now he will never reclaim his stolen birthright. Yet Uhtred’s fate is bound to the Saxons. To Aethelflaed, bright lady of Mercia and to a dead king’s dream of England. For great battles must still be fought – and no man is better at that than Uhtred. The Empty Throne In the battle for power, there can be only one ruler. The ruler of Mercia is dying, leaving no apparent heir. His wife is a born leader, but no woman has ever ruled over an English kingdom. And she is without her greatest warrior and champion, Uhtred of Bebbanburg. An empty throne leaves the kingdom exposed to rival West Saxons and to the Vikings, who are on a bloody rampage once more.

The great fort was built on a rock that was almost an island, it was massive, it could only be approached on land by a single narrow track – and it was mine. Britain is in a state of uneasy peace. Northumbria’s Viking ruler, Sigtryggr, and Mercia’s Saxon Queen Aethelflaed have agreed a truce. And so England’s greatest warrior, Uhtred of Bebbanburg, at last has the chance to take back the home his traitorous uncle stole from him so many years ago – and which his scheming cousin still occupies.

Bernard Cornwell's Richard Sharpe's Series 11 to 15 (5 Books Set) Soldier; hero; rogue - Sharpe is the man you always want on your side. Born in poverty; he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles whose green jacket he proudly wears. Fury Captain Sharpe has to protect a philandering diplomat and; deserted by his ally; faces the enemy. In the winter of 1811; the war seems lost. Spain has fallen to the French; except for Cadiz; now the Spanish capital and itself under siege. Inside the city walls an intricate diplomatic dance is taking place and Richard Sharpe faces more than one enemy. The small British force is trapped by a French army; and their only hope lies with the outnumbered redcoats outside refusing to admit defeat. There; in the sweltering horror of Barrosa; Sharpe will meet his old enemy Colonel Vandal once again. Battle Richard Sharpe is fighting for his Irish battalion and his own honour through the blood-stained streets of the town. Quartered in a crumbling Portuguese fort; Richard Sharpe and his men are attacked by an elite French unit; led by an old enemy of Sharpes; and suffer heavy losses. The armys high command blame Sharpe for the disaster and his military career seems to be ruined. His only hope is to redeem himself on the battlefield. So with his honour at stake; against an overwhelming number of French troops; Sharpe leads his men to battle in the narrow streets of Fuentes de Oñoro. Company Captain Richard Sharpe has to lead the attack on the terrible fortress. It is a hard winter. For Richard Sharpe it is the worst he can remember. He has lost command to a man who could buy the promotion Sharpe covets. His oldest enemy; the ruthless and indestructible Hakeswill; joins the regiment and he is a man with a mission to ruin Sharpe. But Sharpe is determined to change his luck. The only way - a desperate choice - is to volunteer the Forlorn Hope; to lead the attack on the impregnable fortress town of Badajoz; a road to almost certain death or; just possibly; to heroic glory. Enemy Major Sharpe; in the bitter winter; must attempt a desperate rescue and face his most implacable enemy. Newly promoted; he is given the task of rescuing a group of well-born women; held hostage high in the mountains by a rabble of deserters. And one of the renegades is Sergeant Hakeswill; Sharpes bitter enemy. Sharpe has only the support of his own company and the new Rocket Troop - the last word in military incompetence - but he cannot afford to contemplate defeat. For to surrender or to fail would mean the end of the war for the Allied armies. Sword Richard Sharpe; who alone can recognise the top French spy; is under orders to capture him alive. Richard Sharpe is once again at war. But this time his enemy is just one man - the ruthless Colonel Leroux. Sharpes mission is to safeguard El Mirador; a spy whose network of agents is vital to British victory....

Born in poverty; he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles whose green jacket he proudly wears. Fury Captain Sharpe has to protect a philandering diplomat and; deserted by his ally; faces the enemy. In the winter of 1811; the war seems lost. Spain has fallen to the French; except for Cadiz; now the Spanish capital and itself under siege. Inside the city walls an intricate diplomatic dance is taking place and Richard Sharpe faces more than one enemy. The small British force is trapped by a French army; and their only hope lies with the outnumbered redcoats outside refusing to admit defeat. There; in the sweltering horror of Barrosa; Sharpe will meet his old enemy Colonel Vandal once again. Battle Richard Sharpe is fighting for his Irish battalion and his own honour through the blood-stained streets of the town. Quartered in a crumbling Portuguese fort; Richard Sharpe and his men are attacked by an elite French unit; led by an old enemy of Sharpes; and suffer heavy losses. The armys high command blame Sharpe for the disaster and his military career seems to be ruined. His only hope is to redeem himself on the battlefield.
