While many people have heard of the battle at Rorke’s Drift, (featured in the film Zulu), and the one at Isandlwana that preceded it, few outside of South Africa know of an earlier and equally bloody conflict. Under a tyrannical king, the Zulu nation defended its territory with ruthless efficiency against white settlers. Only a naïve English vicar, with his family and some translators, are permitted to live in the king’s capital. It is into this cleric’s household that Thomas Flashman finds himself, as a most reluctant guest.

Listening to sermons of peace and tolerance against a background of executions and slaughter, Thomas is soon fleeing for his life, barely a spearpoint ahead of regiments of fearsome warriors. He is to learn that there is a fate even worse than his own death, before being pitched in with Boers and British settlers as they fight a cunning and relentless foe. Thomas strives for his own salvation, before discovering that chance has not finished with him yet.

This is a much darker Flashman story and it shows Thomas in a different light. Well worth listening to it is a great addition to his chronicles.

Coming from voraciously re reading GMF's genious Flashmans, I was prepared for these versions being sub par, but by god I'm staggered by the robotic monotonous narration of this novel. It sucks every last possible slice of entertainment from what should be a staggering piece of history..I've a long interest in the Boers struggle with the zulu and can recommend excellent historical accounts..I'd hoped this would be a Flashmanesque romp through the timeline but no, it's utterly dull, partly due to the writing but absolutely destroyed by terrible narration..dear god he can't even pronounce the zulu kings name correctly..shocking!
