In this volume of The Flashman Papers, Flashman, the arch-cad and toady, matches his wits, his talents for deceit and malice, and above all his speed in evasion against the most brilliant European statesman and against the most beauiful and unscrupulous adventuress of the era. From London gaming-halls and English hunting-fields to European dungeons and throne-rooms, he is involved in a desperate succession of escapes, disguises, amours and (when he cannot avoid them) hand-to-hand combats. All the while, the destiny of a continent rests on his broad and failing shoulders.

Critic reviews

Praise for the Flashman series
“Hilariously funny.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Great dirty fun!”—Grand Rapids Press

“The most entertaining anti-hero in a long time… Moves from one ribald and deliciously corrupt episode to the next… Wonderful and scandalous.”—Publishers Weekly

“Raises dastardliness to the level of an art… One of the most amusing and sardonic novels I have ever read!”—Omaha World

“As irreverent and picaresque as Tom Jones and always more dramatic… Flashman is a one-man demolition squad!”—Chicago Today

“Marvelously entertaining… A delight!”—Providence Journal

Flashman finds himself woven into a scheme of political angling, while he looks out for himself. Superbly read by David Case.

A rousing romp all around. The narrator was excellent and the fiction historically accurate for the times. I enjoyed this volume of the Flashman series even more than the first in the series.

Excellent

Once again another brilliant tale of our anti-hero Flashy. The story is terrific and performed beautifully by Mr. Case. If you like Flashman you'll blast through this hilarious read.

Classic Flashman

The fictional memoir of a British officer who is, he openly admits, a poltroon. Some of his language is offensive, so listen with headphones. Engaging tale. Terrific narration.

Humor, adventure, history..

More of the same from Flashman. Interesting situations and enjoyable writing but disgusting individual. I will continue with the next book in the series.
