Publisher's Summary
Spain, July 1809
Lieutenant Richard Sharpe faces not only great danger on the battlefield but also, even more dangerous, treachery within his own ranks. But as the enemy approaches, he must pick up his rifle and prepare to lead his men against the French at one of the biggest, bloodiest fights of the war – the Battle of Talavera.
Out of the mist comes the roaring, undefeated army sent by Emperor Napoleon. Over their heads soar the Eagles, the standards touched by the hand of the Emperor himself. And boldly waiting for them is Sharpe . . .

Another great book
The narrator is the best of any I have come across.
I read the entire series many years ago but Rupert Farley brings life to the characters. Better than the TV series.

Great listen
Excellent description of various battles that Sharpe becomes involved ln. A believable plot that shows up the impotence of many english officers who by accident of birth can command men into battle without the requisite capicity to lead.

Maybe his best adventure
Still finding his feet, this story establishes his fame and place at the table of his peer commanders. But he remains a difficult officer to live with. His only way up is in battle and over the dead bodies of his peers.
