At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the British Empire stretched from the English Channel to the Indian Ocean. One of the soldiers, the builders of the empire, a man who participated in all the wars that England fought at that time, was Rifleman Sharpe. In the novel “The Battle of Rifleman Sharpe”, Richard Sharpe receives under his command a detachment of worthless infantrymen and, instead of taking part in intrigues of high authorities, begins a “personal war” with an elite French brigade exterminating Spanish partisans. In the novel “Shooter Sharpe’s Company”, the hero, who was most humiliatingly deprived of his captain’s rank, tries to get into “Desperate Hope” - a suicide squad that will have to storm a hole in there is a breach in the fortress wall. But even this Sharpe is denied, and what’s more, his mortal enemy, the notorious scoundrel Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill, arrives in the company that he no longer commands. For the first time in Russian, two more novels from the famous historical saga!
