I think Prey and Trafalgar are some of his best work, and definitely great Sharpe books. Fury and Devil I would not argue about to much.

I would go for the first written first, which is eagle. To my mind its one of the better books, but it also writtenas an intorduction to the original 3 Eagle, Gold and Company.
