    Welcome back, Richard Sharpe!
  

*by N***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 October 2021*

At Waterloo Sharpe lost a number of his chosen men and the story begins with our two heroes, Patrick Harper and Sharpe burying Daniel Hagman. He is summoned by the Duke of Wellington.The Duke gives him the task of freeing some prisoners from the citadel at a nearby town called Ham. One prisoner in particular is important, an Englishman called Alan Fox. It’s considered a fool’s errand. But it is necessary. As the Duke says, ‘For this job we need a ruthless bastard.’ And that’s Sharpe.While he’ll be away Sharpe’s battalion is handed over to a newly arrived Major Morris. This is not good news. Years ago Morris was responsible for Sharpe getting flogged for something he didn’t do. Now, however, Sharpe outranks Morris.All Sharpe wants to do is retire to Normandy with Lucille, his common-law wife. After this last task, perhaps?Yet the assault on the Ham citadel leads to the revelation that a cabal of Frenchmen have organised to wreak havoc on the occupying forces, with the intention of assassinating British high-ranking officers, in particular Wellington. Sharpe and Harper enter occupied Paris in search of this evil fraternity.As with the earlier Sharpe books, the fiction is laced with historical events, lending added authenticity.Throughout, the voices of the TV series’ actors resonates in the dialogue. There’s blood and gore aplenty, clever tactics to confound the enemy, lashings of humour at the expense of the French, honour and betrayal, and bold and foolhardy bravery.Welcome back, Richard Sharpe! You’ve been away far too long.

    Sharpe's Final? Captivating Outing!
  

*by C***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 December 2021*

**Should Read as 4.5 Stars!**This eventful novel is the 21st chronologically, and the 22nd in total, of the amazing Richard Sharpe series.The historical details at the end of the book are wonderfully described by the author, and implemented in a very likeable fashion in this post-Waterloo adventure.Storytelling is as ever of a superb quality, all characters, whether they are real historical or enjoyable fictional, come vividly to life in this delightful spy/war story, and the atmosphere and living conditions of a defeated Paris and thus France come splendidly off the pages.I read a review from a certain L. Young stating that Harry Price was made a permanent Major at the end in Sharpe's Waterloo, but that is only partly true, because if reading correctly it was subject to recognition by Whitehall, but those responsible at Whitehall must probably have turned it down, so Harry Price is still a Captain in this tale also.This tale is mainly set in the year AD1815, right after the Battle of Waterloo, and it ends with an epilogue that is set in AD 1816.In this tale "acting" Leuitenant-Colonel Sharpe and his men, along whom are his brother-in-arms and best friend Sergeant-Major Patrick Harper, Sergeant Weller, Captain Price and Private Bee, not to forget in my view a rather unnecessary Major Charlie Morris, Sharpe's nemesis from India, and last but not least a rather poor spy in Mr Fox, and they are to pave the way for Duke of Wellington so he march into Paris unscathed, and at the same time to uncover a cult naming themselves "La Fraternité", with at its head the already deceased General Delaunay, at Waterloo, and Colonel Lanier, nicknamed "The Monster".What is to come is an entertaining historical adventure, where the interaction between the blood brothers Sharpe and Harper is paramount, and in which Sharpe and his men will have to fight their way from Waterloo, via Péronne and Ham, into Paris, and over there the discovery of the leader of "La Fraternité" in Lanier is soon made and at the end in a final desperate battle the end of the war will be concluded between Sharpe and Lanier in a most touching and camaraderie fashion.Still highly recommended, for this is a wonderful, in my view final?, goodbye to Sharpe, Harper and other likeable figures, and that's why I like to call this episode: "Sharpe's Final? Captivating Outing"!
