Mapped endpapers. Hardcover with DJ. Harry Flashman is one of the great characters in historical fiction, and I have to say that this is one of those series you keep up on the bookshelves as it never fails to disappoint you on a rainy day. The cadence of the text takes a little while to get used to, but Fraser has created a wonder in Flashman - bold, cunning, and resourceful, a rake who's always looking to save his own skin in the course of a series of difficult assignments, a fan of the ladies and they of him, and always willing to have another medal pinned on his chest in the course of his adventures. He's a caricature and yet a deep character study all at the same time. Here, Flashman gets caught up in the Crimean War with a bunch of doltish aristocrats in charge of the British forces in Lords Raglan and Cardigan. Long story short, despite his best attempts to stay out of harm's way Flashman finds himself bounding down the valley with the rest of the charge of the light brigade. To me, it was the parts in Russia and Central Asia that were the most fun - the escape across the snows in a sledge, the charge with the Kirghiz hordes. Never a dull moment in this one, and full of the battlefields and boudoirs that you've come to expect in the series. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 288 pages. N° de réf. du vendeur 58791
