"I have been reading the Flashman papers over the past 3 or so years. I got into them as an ex pat and with a lack of english reading material a co worker brought these in. What can I say if you have read one rollicking amoral or is he more immoral Flashman tale you have read them all.
Once again the authour builds on the real history nicely giving a more expanded detail in several pages of appendixes. Flashman has an adventure in the old west from its beginnings of the Indian wars to the end. And strangely once again is an unknown participate in great events.
All in all no different from other books in the series and a nice easy and informative way to spend a couple of hours."
"Flash is a very, very bad person... not evil, but bad in the self-absorbed, impulsive, screw-other-people over sense. I should also add that I haven't laughed so hard while reading a book in the last year. Kudos for creating an anti-hero in the historical fiction genre."
"Kicks ass, rollicking good read about an English officer who's a total bastard yet always lands with his ass in the butter... very funny, raunchy and educational, as the author always portrays him crucial historical events that changed history."
