I know it’s not a new post, but I just came across these!! What a treat…but…. more and more it’s feeling like Jack’s thought processes are sending him straight off a cliff. Poor guy is quickly going absolute bats*it!! What great characters, great story, stellar narration as usual! Ty so much!

This set up is clumsy. The author creates so much distancing words that you might as well be reading a hastily written summery of each page from some who knows some one that read the book. But I could deal with that but not that scene when he first meets the enemy. Infantry in this era would have known to form square. Doesn't matter if he's a fake officer orr not, the Sargent veteran or not, they would have been forming square before the officers even knew was happening. It's no great mystery. Even though fussiliers could have possibly broken like number horsemen with some platoon fire but you don't form line against calvary. Independent fire? I can't believe thus is billed as the inherent of sharpes riffles. Ridiculous.

Good story well read, thank you. We British still have some insensitive and outright stupid 'leaders', fortunately fewer now. As for Islam, it remains as touchy as ever, in the words of Edrogan, president of Turkey "Islam is Islam it can't change won't change", it's values are not compatible with western values, don't believe me, read some Quran and the Muslim Brotherhood Charter...
