Acerca de esta escucha
The story of what happened to Flashman, the caddish bully of Tom Brown's Schooldays, after he was expelled in drunken disgrace from Rugby school in the late 1830s. This is the first of George Macdonald Fraser's hilarious satires starring Harry Paget Flashman.

Historia
Mark Franklin came from the American West to Edwardian England with two long-barrelled .44s in his baggage and a fortune in silver in the bank. Where he had got it and what he was looking for no one could guess, although they wondered -- at Scotland Yard, in City offices, in the glittering theatreland of the West End, in the highest circles of Society (even King Edward was puzzled) and in the humble pub at Castle Lancing.

Historia
Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey are unquestionably two of the greatest epic masterpieces in Western literature. Though more than 2,700 years old, their stories of brave heroics, capricious gods, and towering human emotions are vividly timeless. The Iliad can justly be called the world’s greatest war epic. The terrible and long-drawn-out siege of Troy remains one of the classic campaigns. The Odyssey chronicles the many trials and adventures Odysseus must pass through on his long journey home from the Trojan wars to his beloved wife.

The Great Game between Victorian Britain and Tsarist Russia was fought across desolate terrain from the Caucasus to China, over the lonely passes of the Parmirs and Karakorams, in the blazing Kerman and Helmund deserts, and through the caravan towns of the old Silk Road - both powers scrambling to control access to the riches of India and the East. When play first began, the frontiers of Russia and British India lay 2000 miles apart; by the end, this distance had shrunk to 20 miles at some points.

This is the story of Jim Dixon, a hapless lecturer in medieval history at a provincial university who knows better than most that “there was no end to the ways in which nice things are nicer than nasty ones.” Kingsley Amis’s scabrous debut leads the audience through a gallery of emphatically English bores, cranks, frauds, and neurotics with whom Dixon must contend in one way or another in order to hold on to his cushy academic perch and win the girl of his fancy.

The regimes at these schools had been largely unchallenged, with the assumption being that the education and training received were the best.

In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

Flashmaniacs Rejoice!!!
Would you consider the audio edition of Flashman to be better than the print version?
Far superior, the audio edition is perfect for people unfamiliar with British military history or many of the historical figures of Flashman's age.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Flashman?
Flashman's duel of honor, ( in which he fixes the outcome) which sets the ball rolling for his "heroics" in Afghanistan. He becomes the talk of military society and his gentlemenly conduct lauded when in reality his dishonesty saved his bacon from the fire.... the beginning of many such hilarious situations our protagonist finds himself in.
Have you listened to any of David Case’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have listened to many of his performances, and this one is just as excellent. Great voices in Mr. Cases repitoire.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not just this audio Flashman but all in the "Flashman Papers" series!!!! Please bring us Flashman's Lady and Flashman in the Great Game and convert abridged into unabridged format.
Any additional comments?
The Flashman papers will take you on a rollicking adventure through the annals of British Military history through the eyes of a cowardly, bullying, lechering, and most of all hilarious British officer in the 19th Century. You are in for a treat!!!

Superb! The stuff Hero's are really made off
Learning history and the fine art of sound realism in a beautifully narrated epic novel.that P.G.Wodehouse would have loved to write.

My favorite series
Refreshing in this time of unlimited “political correctness” to hear a hilarious tale of how it is or was

Cads, rogues, and a Little History-
What did you love best about Flashman?
I'm a historical history buff and I enjoy taking my history with a spoonful of sugar.
I love the fast moving story line and Flashman, he just tickles me.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Flashy of course. Sometimes you get tired of the traditional hero and are in the mood for a Cowardly Rogue.
What about David Case’s performance did you like?
Narrator was perfect, he just seemed to catch the irony of Flashman in his intonations. I'm American but I found his English Accent understandable and just downright enjoyable
Any additional comments?
Try the first book.

Flashman = Basil Faulty and Indiana Jones
Listening to this book I could imagine it a hilarious film .
I was surprise to discover that Flashman has been made a movie star in 1975
I think its time for a reboot

What a hoot
A brilliant off shoot of Tom Brown's School Days that brings to life the Forest Gump of the 19th century.

Amazing
The historical backdrop is enthralling. In fact, because of this book, I went to Wikipedia and researched the First Afghan war. Many of the characters listed from history are included in this book. The antics of Flashman are embarrassing, frantic and totally not correct according to our modern world. But then this is not 1840 when England ruled the world. Or at least tried to. A very enjoyable book. I highly recommend.
