Description:
War has come back to europe yet again! Napoleon is back and is ready for another round with Britain. For the first time the british army and the Duke of Wellington himself will fight the french army with napoleon himself on the field. Wellington has beaten many of napoleons best generals in spain, but now the ultimate test and ultimate battle of the napoleonic wars will be fought. Sharpe is now at the highest rank he will ever attain and would never miss an ultimate battle that will not only end the war in which the best army britain ever had fought in, but also lead to britain becoming a world superpower. Sadly thanks to political interference sharpe will once again end up with an incompetent superior who is also a prince, which will not stop Sharpe from being impudent or attempting something worse when his mistakes lead to needless deaths. Some things never change.
