Summary

Summary

An honored veteran of the Napoleonic Wars, Lieutenant Colonel Richard Sharpe has become a peaceful farmer following Waterloo. But he comes out of retirement to undertake a perilous mission to find his old friend Don Blas Vivar, Captain-General of the Spanish colony of Chile, who vanished without a trace half a world away.

With intrepid Irishman Patrick Harper at his side, Sharpe journeys to Chile, a land seething with corruption and revolt. But when fortune delivers him into the hands of Lord Cochrane, the legendary rebel genius, the real battle erupts. On land and at sea, Sharpe faces impossible odds in a time when tyranny rules, injustice abounds, and Napoleon lurks on the horizon, itching to rekindle the world in a blaze of war.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“With a plot up to its neck in blood and guts, this is adventure naked and unashamed.” —Mail on Sunday (London)
“A series of breathtaking adventures on land and sea that ends with a smashing, against-the-odds rebel victory…Readers will be dazzled by the rollicking plot, period color and the atavistic thrill of terrific battle scenes right out of a Turner painting.” —Publishers Weekly
“A rousing read, full of invincible characters, deafening broadsides, roaring cannons, and smoking pistols.” —Booklist
“The adventure is high and the battle scenes gripping, graphic, and true…Satisfying listening for those who relish derring-do.”  —Kliatt
“Cornwell, one of the great naval writers of this era, finds a way to get his intrepid army hero to sea for much of the story—without in the least compromising the high standards of this first-rate series.” —Kirkus Reviews
