Sharpe's Tiger (1998) By Bernard Cornwell
 
Sharpe's Tiger is the fifteenth (though first in chronological order) historical novel in the Richard Sharpe series by Bernard Cornwell and was first published in 1997. It acts as a prequel to the "original" Sharpe series, which begins in 1809, while Sharpe is a captain in the Peninsular War during the Talavera Campaign in Spain. In Tiger, Sharpe is a private in the 33rd Regiment of Foot, serving in southern India during the Siege of Seringapatam in 1799.
 
It is also the first of three novels (followed by Sharpe's Triumph and Sharpe's Fortress) chronicling Sharpe's army service in India. Two others (Sharpe's Trafalgar and Sharpe's Prey) take place before the Peninsular War.
