This is the story of a classic Blackguard who enjoyed villainy for its own sake. Shameless, exciting, funny, Flashman’s deplorable odyssey is studded with great figures as wellington, Queen Victoria, Dr Arnold, Cardigan and Akbar Khan, observed with the cynical eye of a scoundrel who was honest only in reporting what he saw.

FLASHMAN is the soft and seamy underbelly of the great Victorian epic.
