Sharpe's Battle. Sharpe's Company

At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the British Empire stretched from the English Channel to the expanses of the Indian Ocean. One of the soldiers, builders of the empire, a man who participated in all the wars England waged at that time, was Sharpe the marksman. In the novel «Sharpe's Battle», Richard Sharpe takes command of a unit of utterly useless infantry, and instead of engaging in the intrigues of high command, he begins a «personal war» with an elite French brigade that is exterminating Spanish partisans. In the novel «Sharpe's Company», the hero, having been disgracefully stripped of his captaincy, tries to join the «Desperate Hope» — a suicide squad that is about to storm a breach in the fortress wall. But even in this, Sharpe is denied, and moreover — his deadly enemy, the notorious scoundrel Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill, arrives in the company he no longer commands.
