When Flashman was inveigled into a game of pontoon with Disraeli and Lord George Bentinck, he was making an unconscious choice about his own future – would it lie in the House of Commons or in the West African slave trade? Was there, for that matter, very much difference? For one thing was certain, that Flashman would bring to his third great adventure all the qualities which had earned him fame and honour in the First Afghan War and brought him through his deadly power struggle with Bismark: Qualities like charm, cowardice, quickness of thought, treachery, lechery, and above all, fleetness of foot.
"The Flashman books bristle with action…and they are very, very funny."
THE TIMES
"George MacDonald Fraser is going great guns, and happy thought he still has some 50 years of the rascal's misdeeds to regale us with."
