Publisher's Summary

*SHARPE’S COMMAND, the brand new novel in the global bestselling series, is available to pre-order now*

Spain, March 1811

Cadiz is under siege – the last city standing in France’s conquest of Spain. So Captain Richard Sharpe must navigate the spymasters and murderous factions within its walls – and see off deadly threats from more than one enemy.

Deserted by their ailing Spanish allies, the British are heavily outnumbered as they prepare to halt the French at Barrosa – their last chance of liberating the fortress city of Cadiz. And ready to face his old enemy in battle is Sharpe . . .

Critic Reviews

"Sharpe and his creator are national treasures." (Sunday Telegraph)

"Bernard Cornwell is a literary miracle. Year after year, hail, rain, snow, war and political upheavals fail to prevent him from producing the most entertaining and readable historical novels of his generation." (Daily Mail)

"Cornwell's narration is quite masterly and supremely well-researched." (Observer)

"The best battle scenes of any writer I've ever read, past or present. Cornwell really makes history come alive." (George R.R. Martin)

2 different stories at Cadiz

There are 2 different stories here. 1 of intrigue and blackmail in Cadiz and the other about the battle of Barossa and the campaign to liberate the siege of Cadiz by the French. A very tense battle preceded by a fun caper in the city. Rupert Farley as always does amazing narration. My only complaint that he didn't let loose and actually sing Hearts of Oak!
