I just finished re-reading Sharpe’s Waterloo and found it even more enjoyable than when I read it in 1990.  At that time I was a captain in the U.S. Air Force stationed at the Tonopah Test Range in Nevada, home of the F-117A Stealth fighter.  We lived on site four days out of the week before returning to our homes and families in Las Vegas.  I checked Sharpe’s Waterloo out of the base library, thinking it was a history of the battle.  When I realized it was a novel I was disappointed, but my disappointment changed to pleasure as I read the book.  It spurred me to find and read the other Sharpe novels, so thank you for your excellent research, writing, and unforgettable characters!  I have read at least parts of your other stories, and always find them very enjoyable, but my favorite is still marching with Sharpe and Harper.
