Title: Hoo boy - hope you like blood
Review: Sharpe is once again in the wrong place at the right time - this time Trafalgar. The battle scenes are riveting and horrendous - it is utterly amazing what these sea warriors lived through. Sharpe is his usual indestructible self, which strains imagination after awhile. I was disturbed by Sharpe's willingness to cold bloodedly murder a pathetic antagonist who tries to blackmail him. It took some of the sheen off his heroic character, and doesn't ring true. Still a great read if you're into this genre.
