It's one last battle for Sharpe and Harper and a bit of an epilogue for Napoleon. This book wasn't quite necessary to end the series, but I found it a nice draw down as I've read them all in chronological order, which I'm very glad to have done. I spent several months living in Sharpe's fascinating world. I never tired of Cornwell's voice as he revealed it. His depth of historical research and accuracy may have spoiled me for other straight historical fiction writers. I'll need a well researched historical fantasy next. So on to Naomi Novik - After a few very deep breaths. ( ) After Napoleon has been defeated and Sharpe has retired, Richard Sharpe agrees to go find the missing Don Blas Vivar. He is accompanied by Patrick Harper. They get to meet the exiled Napoleon, than travel to Chile. In Chile he is drawn into Lord Cochrane's capture of Valdivia. I learned a lot about the Chilean War of Independence. SUMMARY: Five years after the Battle of Waterloo, Sharpe’s peaceful retirement in Normandy is shattered by a plea for help. An old friend, Don Blas Vivar, is missing in Chile, reported dead at rebel hands - a report his wife refuses to believe. She appeals to Sharpe to find out the truth. So it is that the reluctant Sharpe and his constant companion in adventure, Patrick Harper, find themselves bound for Chile via St Helena, where they have a fateful meeting with the fallen Emperor Napoleon. Sharpe and Harper are convinced that they are on their way to collect a corpse; neither can imagine the dangers that await them in Chile. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
