About this listen
Richard Sharpe returns to England to save the regiment.
Major Sharpe’s men are in mortal danger – not from the French, but from the bureaucrats of Whitehall. Unless reinforcements can be brought from England, the regiment will be disbanded.
Determined not to see his regiment die, Sharpe returns to England and uncovers a nest of high-ranking traitors, any of whom could utterly destroy his career with a word. Sharpe is forced into the most desperate gamble of his life – and not even the influence of the Prince Regent may be enough to save him.
Soldier, hero, rogue – Sharpe is the man you always want on your side. Born in poverty, he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles whose green jacket he proudly wears.

‘Sharpe and his creator are national treasures.' Sunday Telegraph
'Bernard Cornwell is a literary miracle. Year after year, hail, rain, snow, war and political upheavals fail to prevent him from producing the most entertaining and readable historical novels of his generation.' Daily Mail
'Cornwell's narration is quite masterly and supremely well-researched.' Observer
‘The best battle scenes of any writer I’ve ever read, past or present. Cornwell really makes history come alive.’ George R.R. Martin

Never Gets Old
This is more of a shout out to Rupert Farley. The story is 5 stars as usual with plot twists and turns and our hero gets the girl. The narration by Rupert Farley is what brings these characters to life. I read the first book in the series and Farley's voice for Sharpe is the exact one had in my mind as I read. I know that Sharpe was "brought up" in a Rookery in East London, but a cockney voice just doesn't fit (I'm from S.E London). Farley's accents are brilliant! Great choice of narrator for this series of novels!

surprisingly great!
Based on the synopsis of Sharpe heading back to Britain, I thought that this story would be my least favorite. It's surprisingly great and turned out to be one of the better books in the series!
