This set up is clumsy. The author creates so much distancing words that you might as well be reading a hastily written summery of each page from some who knows some one that read the book. But I could deal with that but not that scene when he first meets the enemy. Infantry in this era would have known to form square. Doesn't matter if he's a fake officer orr not, the Sargent veteran or not, they would have been forming square before the officers even knew was happening. It's no great mystery. Even though fussiliers could have possibly broken like number horsemen with some platoon fire but you don't form line against calvary. Independent fire? I can't believe thus is billed as the inherent of sharpes riffles. Ridiculous.
I’m not sure he’s THAT bad but he’s certainly not as good as William Gaminara narrating Sharpe or Christian Rodska narrating Hornblower or Timothy West narrating Flashman that’s for sure.
Go listen to Sharpe's chrisrmas then you'd think this guy a pro. I think it was havoc but the guy was a mess. The guy who read sharpes honor didn't seem like an amature but he was just horrible
Great book and narration is superb
Better then expected and well read
So far so good! A likable rascal as a hero.....
Very enjoyable, thanks.

Alot of telling rather then showing and white rooms

This narrator must be the most amateur I have ever heard unbelievably bad

We can't have everything, but the book is very good.
There's nothing wrong with his reading
