Klappentext zu „Fire And Sword “
The third in this epic quartet of novels focusing on two giants of European history, Wellington and Napoleon.In the early years of the nineteenth century, Arthur Wellesley (elevated to Viscount Wellington in the course of the novel) and Napoleon Bonaparte are well established as men of military genius. Wellesley has returned from India, where his skill and bravery made a remarkable impression on his superiors. He faces trials and tribulations on the political scene before becoming embroiled militarily in Copenhagen, then Portugal and finally Spain. Napoleon, established as Emperor, is cementing his control on Europe, intending finally to crush his hated foe across the Channel: Great Britain. The time is fast approaching when Wellington and Napoleon will come face to face in confrontation - and only one man can emerge victorious...

Simon Scarrow lebt im englischen Norfolk, wo er als College-Dozent Geschichte lehrt. Als ein großer Verehrer der Romane von Cornwell, Forester und O'Brian und ausgewiesener Kenner des Römischen Reichs beschloss Scarrow eines Tages, das zu schreiben, was er selbst gerne lesen würde: packende Abenteuerromane vor dem Hintergrund der römischen Invasion in Britannien im Jahre 43 n. Chr.
