Sharpe

My Works

Some of these were inspired more by the TV show and others more by the books, but I don't think any of them are so particular to one storyline or another that you'd need to be familiar with one specific version of the source material to enjoy them.

Series: Comrades in Arms

The first one of these was a bit of a joke idea and then I wrote a more serious sequel.
