George MacDonald Fraser Orden de los libros (cronológico)

`There is no doubt that [Quartered Safe Out Here] is one of the great personal memoirs of the Second World War' John Keegan

El salvaje Oeste y la batalla de Little Big Horn es uno de los escenarios ideales para que un personaje como Flashman desarrolle sus mejores artes: el engaño, la traición, el juego sucio... En esta novela tiene ocasión de demostrar hasta qué extremos es capaz de llegar con tal de salvar el pellejo. Y la sátira que hace MacDonald Fraser tanto de los indios como de los soldados y políticos americanos no deja títere con cabeza.

Elizabethan England, and a dastardly Spanish plot to take over the throne is uncovered. It's up to Agent Archie Noble to save Queen and country in this saucy and swashbuckling romp from the bestselling author of The Flashman Papers and The Pyrates.

Celebrated Victorian bounder, cad, and lecher, Sir Harry Flashman, V.C., returns to play his (reluctant) part in the Abyssinian War of 1868 inthe long-awaited twelfth installment of the critically acclaimed Flashman Papers.

Harry Flashman, der amoralische Feigling und Frauenheld, kehrt zurück! Im 1. Sikh-Krieg soll er die Khalsa-Armee ausspionieren und begegnet dem legendären Koh-i-noor-Diamanten sowie einer schönen Maharani. MacDonald Fraser etabliert sich mit den FLASHMAN-Romanen als Meister des historischen Abenteuergenres.

In volume 2 of The Flashman Papers, Flashman tangles with femme fatale Lola Montez and the dastardly Otto Von Bismarck in a battle of wits which will decide the destiny of a continent. 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 beautiful 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.

A series of novels featuring Flashman, the character from Tom Brown's Schooldays. They concern his life after expulsion from Rugby School in the late 1830s and are a sequence of memoirs in which the arch-cad reviews, from the safety of old age, his exploits in bed and battle.

It’s 1868 and Sir Harry Flashman, V.C., arch-cad, amorist, cold-headed soldier, and reluctant hero, is back! Fleeing a chain of vengeful pursuers that includes Mexican bandits, the French Foreign Legion, and the relatives of an infatuated Austrian beauty, Flashy is desperate for somewhere to take cover. So desperate, in fact, that he embarks on a perilous secret intelligence-gathering mission to help free a group of Britons being held captive by a tyrannical Abyssinian king. Along the way, of course, are nightmare castles, brigands, massacres, rebellions, orgies, and the loveliest and most lethal women in Africa, all of which will test the limits of the great bounder’s talents for knavery, amorous intrigue, and survival. Flashman on the March—the twelfth book in George MacDonald Fraser’s ever-beloved, always scandalous Flashman Papers series--is Flashman and Fraser at their best. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Bringing historical fact spiritedly to life, Fraser tells the rollicking tale of how a Virginia slave, "the black Ajax, " fought his way to freedom and then to celebrity in England in the early 1800s.
