'mainlined Sharpe'. :D

i went through them at about a book a week, and ran out at about the time Prey came out in hardback. I managed not to buy the hardback version - I like to have all my books to match - and was mightily miffed that they changed the cover design between the hardback (which design fit the paperback series I had) and the paperback (which design fits neither the previous cover designs nor the newer ones with the battles on the jackets.)
