Discuss Containing Books Sharpe's Gold (Sharpe #9)
So far my least favorite of the Sharpe series. I'll avoid spoilers, but Sharpe's solution to his seemingly intractable problem was appalling and indefensible. Cornwell did a poor job of selling the problem and the solution, and so I think I'll just have to forget this ever happened if I'm to enjoy the rest of the series.

This came after Sharpe's Eagle, so a hard act to follow. It does a pretty good job, but you only realise Bernard Cornwell's winning formula when you realise there's a crucial bit missing, and that's a massive battle at the end that only turns into a victory thanks to Sharpe. Plenty of other good bits in this one though, nice to see Tom Garrard again after India.

Sharpes Gold by Bernard Cornwell is another enjoyable volume in Cornwells Napoleonic War series featuring our hero, Richard Sharpe. I found this one particularly interesting not just because its a good story that proposes an unusual solution for the cause of a huge explosion that destroyed the fortress at Alameda, but also because of the huge ethical dilemma that Sharpe creates for himself. To my way of thinking, Sharpe doesnt linger long enough on the ramifications of his act, which kills

It's a treasure hunt and everyone's invited!British army officer Richard Sharpe is sent on a secretive mission in Spain, almost a fool's errand, to obtain rumored gold. This is gold that belongs to the Spanish, but is needed by the British, who certainly don't want it to fall into the hands of the French! Many of the nation's involved in the Napoleonic wars are represented in this ally-vs-ally-vs-enemy-vs-etc book, even the Germans show up for some fun!Sharpe's Gold is fun and would be

This is bloody awesome. Reads like a historical napoleon-era western. Includes one really cool swordfight. I read this as my second Sharpe book and knew after reading that I will have to read them all maybe. It seems so far that every book has been better than earlier, which encourages me even more. In this story the characters get more flesh around their bones and everything comes together more --in a third book Sharpe's Escape it seems that not only shit is together, it also smells and looks

We have a lot of gold, we have a posh wanker, we have Sharpe's boys and an impossible task. I love the Sharpe books and how easy it is to delve into and how familiar they are. I don't mind so much that it's getting a tad predictable now because the stories are just fun. Harper and Sharpe's friendship is so firm and they're so solid, it's great. Even when Sharpe keeps him in the dark or doesn't explain the whole story or makes Harper do the 'dirty work'. He's a bit less thuggish in this and I
