In the early nineteenth century, the British Empire stretched from the English Channel to the Indian Ocean. One of the builders of this empire, a participant in all the wars waged at that time by England, was the shooter Sharpe. In the novel The Sharpe Shooter Escape, it depends only on the hero whether the victorious army of Napoleon captures Portugal. Sharpe's life is constantly hanging in the balance, danger lurks him from all sides. Sharpe will have to confront the envious and incompetent superior officers, the supposed allies ready to betray at any moment, and the insidious enemy. In the novel “The Rage of Sharpe’s Gunman”, the British army is on the verge of defeat. Spain fell under the rule of the French. Only Cadiz remained unconquered, behind whose walls there is a cunning diplomatic game. The only hope of the British is Sharpe and his fellow soldiers, who do not want to admit their defeat.
