1/2 - That rating is really 3.5 as I didn't enjoy the battle nearly as much as the one in Sharpe's Tiger.  In fact I found it quite tedious and ended up skipping a number of pages that concerned the placements of Wellesley's troops (not highly exciting, as I couldn't imagine any of it in my mind).  I just looked for appearances of McCandless or Sharpe in the pages and read of their involvement.  I was quite annoyed at the start to read that bloody (view spoiler)[Hakeswill hadn't been eaten by the tigers (hide spoiler)] because they weren't hungry, but was cheered up when he got stepped on by an elephant and squashed to death (no question about his death this time).
