About this listen

Harry Flashman: the unrepentant bully of Tom Brown’s schooldays, now with a Victoria Cross, has three main talents – horsemanship, facility with foreign languages and fornication. A reluctant military hero, Flashman plays a key part in most of the defining military campaigns of the 19th century, despite trying his utmost to escape them all.

Many have marvelled at General Napier's daring 1868 expedition through the treacherous peaks and bottomless chasms of Abyssinia to rescue a small group of British citizens held captive by the mad tyrant Emperor Theodore. But the vital role of Sir Harry Flashman, V.C., in the success of this campaign has hitherto gone unrecorded.

Flashman's undeserved reputation for heroism renders him the British Army's candidate of choice when it comes to skulking behind enemy lines in Ali Baba attire. After all, who but the great amorist could contemplate navigating a land populated by hostile tribes and the loveliest (and most savage) women in Africa, from leather-clad nymphs with a penchant for torture to a voluptuous barbarian queen with a reputation for throwing disobliging guests to her pet lions?

Flashy at his best

Flashman remains the great Victorian adventurer despite his very best efforts not to. In this, a less well known sojourn for the British army into Abyssinia, he once again shows his long list of skills to their absolute best - coward, liar, cheat, lover, the list goes on and never fails to entertain.

Slightly obscure Victorian history as it should be taught...

Not as good as the others the story didn’t seem to flow like it normally does.

Flashy

Perfectly fine as a time killer but the story drags a little from time to time and there are certainly better Flashmans to listen to first.

Not one of the best
