Captain Alatriste
Captain Alatriste (1996) Arturo Perez-Reverte
translated by Margaret Sayers Peden
My mistake came in reading this after reading Steven Brust. Following one swashbuckling adventure with another is bound to lead to comparisons, and as there are few whose writing I love more than Steven Brust, anything else is going to come across as weak by comparison.
