What is the best reading order of Sharpe books? Should I start with Tiger (chronologically first), Eagle (the first published) or Rifles (the first in the original series)? Eg I believe Horatio Hornblower series is better to read in publication order due some changes in Hornblowers characterization and continuity.

Also Napoleonic military fiction in general.

It's been too long since I read Sharpe but I want to recommend Master and Commander.

Sharpe, Hornblower and Master and Commander are all mom-core books. They are still good, but they are mom books.

Sorry I'm retarded, what's mom-core?

>>9571390
You mean dad core?

I've literally never met a female who has even heard of them

This. Master and Commander is my mom's favorite book.

I have all the Sharpe books back from when they started coming out. fun reads, same story every single one but thats the point of genre fiction. Ideal for the 14-30 years old reader and for older occasional readers.

frorgot to add read em in the published order.
>>
Please don't relegate the Aubrey-Maturin series to mom-core. Patrick O'Brian is a first-rate writer -- grossly underrated on this board.

by default you should read anything in publication order unless you have a fucking good reason to read in another order. since you have to ask, in order of publication
