    Im On the 4th book now but there bloody good reads, kind of Sharpe character for Second World War,

    Fans of Sharpe will love the first novel in the Jack Tanner series. Set in Norway, April 1940. Sergeant Jack Tanner and his Yorks Rangers, separated from the main battalion, are drawn into a desperate mission to smuggle Norway's King Haakon's treasures to safety.

    Interesting... I love the Sharpe books, and have nearly all of them, except for Sharpe's Devil... I might look into this.

    Coming from you, I expect no less than literary brilliance.

    If it doesn't meet those expectations, you'll promptly be drawn and quartered.

    Being the redcoat he is, it's only fitting.
