Overview
This five-book paperback set gathers explosive entries in Bernard Cornwell's Richard Sharpe saga, following the rifleman-turned-officer through the fire and chaos of the Peninsular War. From the sweltering siege of Cadiz to the bloody breach at Badajoz and the cavalry clash near Salamanca, Sharpe fights across Spain and Portugal against Napoleon's finest and his own scheming enemies. Cornwell's trademark blend of meticulous research, brisk pacing, and unforgettable characters makes this collection a fine gift for military history buffs, longtime Sharpe fans filling gaps in their shelves, or new readers ready to discover this modern classic of historical fiction.

About the Books
Spanning some of the fiercest campaigns of the Napoleonic Wars, this collection tracks Richard Sharpe's evolution from a battle-tested captain into a seasoned officer whose instincts repeatedly turn the tide of war. In Sharpe's Fury, he is trapped inside besieged Cadiz, navigating espionage before the Battle of Barrosa forces a reckoning with an old enemy. Sharpe's Battle drops him on a threatened frontier fortress, tasked with forging raw Spanish recruits into a fighting force before a French assault arrives. Sharpe's Company sends him back to the horror of Badajoz, one of the war's bloodiest sieges, where a personal vendetta complicates an already desperate assault. Sharpe's Sword follows him into the summer Salamanca campaign, hunting a sadistic French colonel while armies maneuver toward one of Wellington's greatest victories. Finally, Sharpe's Enemy finds him defending Portugal at Christmas 1812, negotiating with kidnappers and deserters as loyalties fracture under the weight of war. Across all five novels, Cornwell grounds hard-charging battle scenes in genuine historical detail, drawing on real sieges, real regiments, and real tactics of the era. The result satisfies both action lovers and history enthusiasts alike, with Sharpe's sharp tongue and sharper instincts carrying every page from ambush to artillery barrage. Readers who enjoy fully realized settings, morally complex antagonists, and a hero who earns every promotion the hard way will find this set thoroughly rewarding.
