Bernard Cornwell Richard Sharpe Series 11 To 20 - 10 Books Set

Bernard Cornwell Richard Sharpe Series 11 to 20 brings together ten novels following Richard Sharpe, a soldier who rose from poverty after joining the army to escape jail. Known only to the regiment of the 95th Rifles, Sharpe’s story is rooted in military life, hard-won rank and the loyalties of the green-jacketed riflemen.

This set spans campaigns marked by siege, diplomacy and shifting alliances. Across these books, Sharpe is tasked with protecting a diplomat in besieged Cadiz, fighting to restore his reputation after disaster, and leading assaults where survival is far from assured. Later, he faces accusations, political intrigue and missions that leave him isolated in enemy territory, relying on uncertain support.

Synopses

Fury

In the winter of 1811, Sharpe must protect a philandering diplomat as Cadiz holds out under siege. With allies deserting him and a small British force trapped, he faces enemies within the city and beyond its walls. At Barrosa, he encounters Colonel Vandal again.

Battle

Quartered in a crumbling Portuguese fort, Sharpe and his men are attacked by an elite French unit led by an old enemy, suffering heavy losses. Blamed by high command, he must seek redemption with his honour at stake. He leads his men into the narrow streets of Fuentes de Oñoro against overwhelming French numbers.

Company

During a brutal winter, Sharpe loses command to a man able to buy the promotion he wants. His enemy Hakeswill joins the regiment with the aim of ruining him. Sharpe volunteers for the Forlorn Hope to lead the attack on the fortress town of Badajoz.

Enemy

Newly promoted, Sharpe is ordered to rescue well-born women held hostage in the mountains by deserters. Among the renegades is Sergeant Hakeswill. With only his company and the Rocket Troop for support, Sharpe cannot afford failure.

Sword

Sharpe is under orders to capture Colonel Leroux alive, the one man he can identify as a top French spy. His mission is to safeguard El Mirador, whose network is vital to British victory. Drawn into political and military intrigue, he navigates aristocratic Spanish society with guidance from La Marquesa.

Revenge

In 1814, Sharpe fights at Toulouse amid rumours about Napoleon’s fate. Accused of stealing Napoleon’s treasure, he must uncover the unknown enemy who framed him. His response is described as ingenious and devastating.

Regiment

Sharpe returns to England to prevent his regiment being disbanded by Whitehall bureaucrats. Seeking reinforcements, he uncovers high-ranking traitors who could destroy his career. He is forced into a desperate gamble, and even the Prince Regent’s influence may not be enough.

Waterloo

In 1815, Sharpe serves on the staff of the Prince of Orange, whose refusal to heed reports leaves disaster looming. As the Battle of Waterloo begins, Sharpe appears sidelined. At a critical moment, he seizes command as victory seems impossible.

Siege

With the invasion of France under way, Sharpe is tasked with capturing a fortress to secure a landing on the French coast. Abandoned in enemy territory through a naval commander’s incompetence, he faces overwhelming forces. He must rely on a hostile American privateer.

Honour

Sharpe becomes a fugitive, hunted by enemy and ally alike as the campaign approaches. Victory depends on a fragile alliance between Britain and Spain, which must be preserved. Pierre Ducos and La Marquesa draw Sharpe into political intrigue beyond his military expertise.
