Dear Mr. Cornwell, I recently discovered your wonderful Sharpe novels thanks to catching the television show on BBC America. I have really enjoyed the series, and have just finished my first, but certainly not last, Sharpe novel. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Sharpe’s Sword and cannot wait to get my hands on all the other Sharpe books. However, I was wondering does it matter in what order I read the books? I have a list of the historical order of the books, which I understand are not their written order, but do you recommend reading them in historical order or just in whatever order I would like? Thanks so much, and I really appreciate all the wonderful adventures. Sincerely, Robin
