Summary
SHARPE IS BACK.
The brand new novel from Bernard Cornwell in the global bestselling Sharpe series.
If any man can do the impossible it's Richard Sharpe . . .
And the impossible is exactly what the formidable Major Sharpe is asked to do when he's dispatched on an undercover mission behind enemy lines, deep in the Spanish countryside.
For a remote village is about to become the centre of a battle for the future of Europe. Sitting high above the Almaraz bridge, it is the last link between two French armies, one in the north and one in the south; if they meet, the British are doomed.
Only Sharpe's small group of men – with their cunning and courage to rely on – stand in their way. But they're rapidly outnumbered, enemies are hiding in plain sight, and time is running out . . .
SHARPE’S COMMAND is the brand new novel in the bestselling historical series that has sold over 20 million copies worldwide.

As expected Sharpe exploits
Written exceptionally as always, I’m loving that there continues to be more stories of one of my favourite characters. The real story following Daddy Hill’s success and twisting it slightly with our favourite rifleman world perfectly. I’m such a fan of Cornwell, it’s hard to criticise, but please make the next story longer. ‘Ye bast’red”.

Occasionally, it’s nice to read a book that gives you everything you want from a favourite character
if you are a fan of Richard Sharpe and his men and the world Bernard Cornwall has brought back to life around him this book is a bit like settling down into a warm Bath. Unapologetically a salute to his own creation. Cornwall has created in these books an authors Nirvana of a fiction inside real history that his readers can dip in and out of Leisure . if you’ve never ventured into Richard Sharp’s world, I recommend you read all these books in the order they were written not in chronological order, the characters actions make more sense which in itself is quite an achievement. I hope this is not sharpes last outing.

Another classic
Cornwell does not put a foot wrong. Yes, there's slight confusion from time to time regarding Sharpes rank, being a private in Tiger but later referred to as a sergeant and him being a full major here but though read in chronological order, they weren't written that way.
This is another thrilling addition to the series and as long as they can be written, people will be reading them. Superb. As always.

Another great Sharpe yarn
As always the twist of historical fact into Sharpe’s fictional world leaves the reader/listener eager for more. Some great characters old and new.

Northern Sharpe?
Always had a problem with the accents on audible. In the books Sharpe is from the rookeries of London but the accent is always South Yorkshire - as per Sean Bean. Annoying. Also he is referred as Captain a couple of times but is actually a Major according to the text. Finally is Harper really from Donegal? The accent sounds more north east Ireland to me. I am available as proof reader/listener and at a reasonable rate too!
