Talleyrand Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 There was a book series that I read a good few years back that i've forgotten the name of as well as any of the characters names and the author's name (I may have a pretty shitty memory) but I do remember enjoying them and no combination of things I do remember is getting any returns so I thought I'd turn to the forum for help. Here's all I remember: the protagonist is a French Noble at the time of the revolution who managed to survive by pretending to be a commoner and while in jail is freed to fight for the revolutionary army along with a bunch of other criminals - the first book has them serving under Napoleon in Italy and the second has them in Egypt. Thats it, hopefully someone can figure something out from my jumbled memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorral Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I would have guessed Richard Howard's series, because the first two novels' locations fit what you recall. However, the protagonist is a former thief, not an aristocrat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've googled it and you were right thanks, I could have sworn he was an aristocrat, but then again my memory is pretty shitty so that's probably just something my mind made up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
