Bernard cornwell the sharpe series 6 to 10 books collection set (rifles, havoc, eagle, gold, escape)

Not at all as pictured or described. I paid this inflated price because the picture looks like a set I could collect & that's what the description at time of purchase & time of writing said. It was a 21st birthday present for someone who's had a tough life & hasn't got any blood relatives so I really wanted to get him something as special as possible. I'm disabled & housebound so it's really hard for me to be able to afford anything & I couldn't nip out to get a replacement. I was so disappointed they were tatty 2nd hand, none in the covers as pictured but from 3 different sets so they don't even look like a set on the bookshelf, the pages are old & discoloured to different ages & colours, I couldn't send the 1st 2 in the set because the front cover has a fold & the spine is extremely creased so no good as a gift. Only the dispatch note confesses you are getting tatty mismatched books. I could have assembled these 2nd hand myself for a lot less money
