À propos de cet audio

Sharpe’s Tiger is the brilliant beginning of Sharpe’s adventures

India, 1799

The citadel of Seringapatam is under siege. Navigating this dangerous kingdom of bejewelled palaces and poverty, Private Richard Sharpe embarks on a rescue mission to save a senior officer from the clutches of the Tippoo of Mysore – and oust the Sultan from his throne.

The fortress of Mysore is considered impregnable, but one of the greatest threats comes from betrayal within the British ranks. And the man to outwit enemies from both sides is Sharpe . . .

Story: It's a prequel to the best Napoleonic series out there. It tells the Origins of the series protagonist as a private in the English army, fighting to unify India under England. It all starts with an undercover mission that'll have you on the edge of your seat.

Narrator: At first I wasn't sure of the narrator, but his range of voices and accents won me over by the second chapter. The only criticism I have of him is his narrator voice is quieter than the Character voices, meaning I have to play it louder than normal to hear everything properly as I drive.

Overall: Corwell had refined his writing style by this point and makes everything come to life perfectly. The first one he wrote was Sharps Eagle and I don't believe it was his best work. Everyone should start here.
The casting of the narrator can make or break a good audio book. Everyone involved nailed it with this one.

Great start to a pretty damn good series.

I’ve read the series from beginning to end at least two times and this is one of my favourites. Rupert Farley is incredible and brings to life the characters flawlessly with a performance that has topped every other audible book I’ve listened to so far. Don’t hesitate to try this.

Great book and better narration!

This is the most entertaining novel I have ever listen too. I say this after listening to every novel Bernard Cornwell wrote. The narration done by Rupert Farley is incredible. Amazing !! And this story about Richard Sharpe , when he was just a private. This story , and the narration by Rupert Farley is the greatest Amazon Audio book I’ve listen too. I have listen to 250 books in the last three years, which includes every Sharpe novel. Believe me , absolutely incredible . 😀

The Greatest Story ever written

An excellent continuation of Sharpe's adventures in India. Bernard Cornwell's story telling coupled with Rupert's narration is really captivating. I especially love the narrator's use of different voices and inflection for each character (and the voices are consistent in each book). Very entertaining, and very enjoyable. I cant wait to listen to the rest of the Sharpe series.

Great Story and Excellent Narration
