David McK (3773 KP) rated Sharpe's Storm (Richard Sharpe #19) in Books

Nov 9, 2025

Most Sharpe novels, somewhere in the authors notes towards the end, has six words:

"Sharpe and Harper will march again"

This one doesn't.

Indeed, in said authors notes Bernard Cornwell even says himself he cannot promise that there will be any more of the Sharpe novels: whilst he doesn't mention this, he himself is now getting on a bit, now (at the date of publication) in his 80s.

So it's understandable, especially with the publication of this delayed by over a year.

Anyway, this is set in between the times of 'Sharpe's Regiment' and 'Sharpe's Siege', as the British forces under Wellington are in the early stages of the invasion of France.

River crossings are a tricky proposition.

The Battle of the Nive, of which this is largely about, being one such.

If it is the last Sharpe novel, I'll miss reading these.

Amazing Sequel of Epic Proportions

*NO SPOILERS, I promise* This being my very first musical, suffice it to say I was floored by the quality of the show. The actors really managed to bring the emotion out in this compelling sequel to The Phantom of the Opera. It follows the story of Christine and Erik 10 years later after their first fateful encounter. Nothing about the performance disappointed me. Minus a single technical difficulty that was resolved in less than 10 minutes, there were no interruptions. The music was also amazing. If you're not interested yet you might as well stop reading. For those of you who are, I seriously recommend following the crew for info on their upcoming shows. It's so worth the money and time you spend on it.
