Reseñas de la Crítica

"Consistently exciting....These are wonderful novels!" (Stephen King)

Good as always

Terrific as always. Frederick Davidson is an acquired narration taste, but getting this far in the series, it's splendid

Different battlefield

I enjoyed the change in the battlefield and the enemy are the bureaucrats and a few old characters.

Fun side quest

Audio version narrated by Frederick Davidson.

This is another side quest entry, but it's a fun one. The first half is almost like a mystery novel and the action in the second is classic Sharpe.

great story improve speaking voice of women

I love these stories, but I hate the way the reader speaks for the female characters. they are sl just a bit drippy and insidious

More Please!

Great fun, lots of adventure, some history. I liked all of Bernard Cornwell Sharpe's books so much that I was deeply depressed when I finished the last one available at audible.

Fredrick Davidson

Fredrick Davidson is one of my favorite performers and does a splendid job in Sharpe’s Regiment.

Great change of pace in England.

Great change of pace in England, where it has its own share of bad men. Another great Bernard Cornwell story about the Peninsula War.

Another adventure!

Cornwell brings us on an adventure through the politics of London which our hero is ill equipped to battle. Might not be the battles and gore or most of the series, but Sharpe die-hards will love it.

Great Sharp book

This book is a gem in the series because it's setting and it's story line are different than the others, the story line is a good one, and it is as crisp a narrative as the others.

Great subject bad recording

While I marked the performance 3 stars, that is more because the audio wasn’t great. The storyline was very good. The narrator did a decent job but sometimes sounded like he was speaking into a bottle. I could hear aircraft flying and sometimes sounds like water running maybe even dishes being done. There were background noises that distracted. Especially the airplane noises. Pretty sure they weren’t around in the 1800’s. That was disappointing.
