I’ve read a bunch of Cornwell’s books but not a single Sharpe book. Something about them just doesn’t draw me in. It’s not my favorite time period and maybe that’s the reason. Plus I love Uhtred so much that every other protagonist seems lame.

The Napoleonic Wars? It's a great time period. The Sharpe series is good and even goes to sea for one book. Haven't read the Saxon stories; sounds like i need to.

Same here. I hold a grudge against the Sharpe series. He admits that he was making so much money off the Sharpe books and tv series that he tabled writing anymore books in his Starbuck Chronicles series.
It’s been so long he’ll never pick it up again.
