Sharpe's Escape: The Bussaco Campaign, 1810 by Bernard Cornwell

3.0

---

I can't read a Sharpe novel at less than 6-month intervals. Otherwise, the formula gets tedious. Still, this is a perfectly fine Sharpe novel: the hero is heroic, the villain is villainous, the damsel is distressed, and we even get to learn a little about the Napoleonic Wars without even realizing it.

I look forward to reading the next Sharpe novel about six months from now.
