havent finished the series yet, but we think that

Any of the sharpe books by bernard cornwell

The ones they didnt meake into feature length movies for the BBC are really good, Because they take place in really Large settings to which they couldnt find anywhere, and are useually done on a massive scale.

Bucks Pick : Sharpes Escape. Full Of Grusomeness, Sillyness, Some Good one liners, and alotof tactical thinking.
