Reviews

Bernard Cornwell
This is a brilliant debut and I look forward to reading more of Jack Lark!
Parmenion Books
I really like reading debut books, to see who are the stars of the future, and Paul Fraser Collard is most certainly one. Book two cannot come soon enough for me
Anthony Riches
I love a writer who wears his history lightly enough for the story he's telling to blaze across the pages like this. Jack Lark is an unforgettable new hero
Peterborough Telegraph
Sharpe fans will be delighted to welcome a swashbuckling new hero to follow... Marvellous fun
