I have been assembling a collection of your Sharpe’s series focusing on the U.S. editions, and have managed to complete it. Not easy! I have even come across some really nice, signed copies. I wonder if you could confirm, or debunk the reason I had heard, or read regarding the scarcity of Sharpe’s Sword, and Company. I gather that there were only 500 U.S. copies of each ever printed. That would, indeed, make them scarce! On another vain, in my search, I came across a “bookseller” that is offering copies of Sharpe’s Company that they claimed were signed by the author, and were asking $850.00 each. They did have signed “book plates” in them with “The Winter King”‘s helmet logo on it. That just struck me as dishonest, and wanted to point out to your fans who are collecting that this is not a signed book. Jack Douglas
