The Fields of Death (Wellington and Napoleon 4)

(Revolution 4)

By: Simon Scarrow

Narrated by: Jonathan Keeble

THE FIELDS OF DEATH is the epic final novel in Simon Scarrow's bestselling Wellington and Napoleon Quartet. Essential reading for fans of Bernard Cornwell.

1809. Viscount Wellington and Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte have made their mark as military commanders. Lifelong enemies, they both believe their armies are strong enough to destroy any rival. But in war victory can never be certain.

While Wellington's success continues in Spain, Napoleon feels the sting of failure. Yet despite a disastrous Russian campaign and humiliating defeat at Leipzig, he persists in fighting on.

With Napoleon's power waning, the newly titled Duke of Wellington is perfectly placed to crush the tyrant. But his enemy refuses to surrender, and so the two giants must face a final reckoning on the bloody battlefield of Waterloo...

Keeble rocks!

I very much enjoyed this series of books. They were very informative and for someone who was not very knowledgeable regarding Napoleon and Wellington they did a great job of educating me. Most of all I appreciate the narrator. Keeble never fails to bring his characters to life. Very well done!

Great historical fiction

Great series on two of the most significant players on the world stage in the early 19th century. Skilled narration too.

Excellent ending to a great Series!!

Simon Scarrow is to be applauded for an excellent piece of Historical Fiction...a real tour de force!! Except for the "Fictional" meeting of Wellington and Napoleon at the conclusion of Waterloo, "Fields" was a completely believable piece of literary genius!

Expectations Exceeded

A wonderful end to the quartet. There's a cherry on top, or rather, an Easter egg. I won't tell you what it is, but if you've read other novels regarding the Peninular War and Waterloo, you'll know to what I'm referring.

I'm also a fan of Jonathan Keeble's style as narrator. He brings depth and richness to all his characters.

Outstanding

A true pleasure from beginning to end. Terrific writing and the best narration. Worth the credit.
