OK, what did I like?
Well, the voice of Flashman was good. Admittedly self serving and cynical, but also observant and reconciled with his own nature. The book did make me snicker at points, and for some odd reason I thought of two other characters, one historic one SF: Sir Richard Burton and James Kirk. Damned if I know why.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series and hopefully re-reading Flashman someday.
What a cad Flashy is. It's pretty fun to read, though there are parts that make me wince. And boy was it fascinating to learn about the First Afghan War.
