India, 1803. It is four years since Richard Sharpe earned his
sergeant's stripes at the siege of Seringatapam, and four years in which Sharpe seems to
have discovered the easiest billet in the British army. But that comfort is rudely
shattered when he witnesses a murderess act of treachery by an English officer who has
defected from the East India Company to join the mercenary army of the Mahratta
Confederation commanded by the flamboyant Hanoverian, Anthony Pohlmann... |
"This book has a very interesting plot indeed, and takes many
twists and turns throughout it's course." ~ RobsBooks. |

We also recommend the Starbuck Chronicles, set in the American Civil War:
Rebel,
described by The Financial Times as "a
sure-fire bestseller" starts the series.
In the summer of 1861 the armies of North and South stood on the brink of America's civil
war. Rebel
tells how a northern boy, Nathaniel Starbuck, came to be fighting for the Southern cause.
Battle Flag, is the second in the series. The Washington Times said about the series: "The Starbuck Chronicles is the best thing to hit civil war fiction since Michael Shaara's The Killer Angels ... Cornwell's command of historical detail is one of the great strengths of his writing that have made him one of the finest authors of military fiction today.

Nathaniel Starbuck is a Copperhead: a northerner fighting
for the rebel South in America's Civil War. Aided by his spymaster Allan Pinkerton, General McClellan is convinced he can lead the northerners to the gates of the rebel capital of Richmond. Starbuck, expelled from his regiment by it's bombastic founder, Washington Faulconer, must travel a hard road before he can rejoin his comrades: through the savage prisons of Richmond, across the blood-sodden battlefields of Virginia, even into the high command of the northern army. For Starbuck has joined the shadowy war of betrayal and espionage, where nothing is certain and no one can be trusted... |
"Among good reads it's a rattler" ~ Mail on Sunday. "A top-class read by a master of historical drama" "A rollicking treat for Cornwell's many fans"
