Mutiny!: The War for India

by Nigel Seed

1857. The carnage of the Crimean War is over and the Rifle Brigade returns to peacetime soldiering, but then the word comes from India that the Sepoy regiments of the East India Company have mutinied, and the jewel in the crown of the British Empire is in danger of being lost. The Rifle Brigade embark for India, but there is a long sea voyage ahead of them. In the meantime the British soldiers already in India must hold out against vastly superior numbers. And so the bloodbath begins.

Reviews

[William Handforth]

in line with the Richard Sharp books

I read the three books in this series. Did them all in a week. Great reading, lots of history. However I was very upset with the ending. It should be rewritten. I will not give it away.

Exceptional.

I have now read every book by Nigel Seed. I would say that Mutiny is by far the best.it is impeccably researched and honestly written. I loved it. The story is quite graphic at times but this is in keeping with the facts.

[Dave Hammett]

Alas

Well war is never finished. But alas some things are. The brothers past haunts them even in India. But they escape the noose.
