Review Quote The Flashman Papers do what all great sagas do winning new admirers along the way but never, ever betraying old ones. It is an immense achievement. Sunday Telegraph Not so much a march as a full-blooded charge, fortified by the usual lashings of salty sex, meticulously choreographed battle scenes and hilariously spineless acts of self preservation by Flashman. Sunday Times Not only are the Flashman books extremely funny, but they give meticulous care to authenticity. You can, between the guffaws, learn from them.
