To take the bully Flashman from Tom Brown's school days and use him to create a funny historical series of such entertaining novels the author deserves high praise, as does Timothy West's reading . Thanks Hobo.

Fantastic. I read these books a decade ago and I have all of them. Deliciously naughty, and based on factual history...absolutely wonderful.

The most astounding story I have ever heard! By the Grace of God I found this by complete accident.

I've been reading these books for 40 years, fantastic books, very funny and educational.

I found one of my old flashman books recently, and I am ashamed to have forgotten how wonderful these books are

[brianfox]

The brilliance of these boks is matched by the performance of the narrator.

I also was first introduced to Flashman while perusing Playboy looking for interesting articles, and of course ignoring any pictorials. Ripping Yarns, and that’s a fact!

Now 67, I see that the world is full of Flashman's. And also fools in charge such as his accurate accounts of Elphinstone and others, and also, people easily taken by superficial appearances. Flashmans' good looks and utter lack of ethics stood him in good stead. These are gret stories and follow history well and in an engaging fashion.

The books are fantastic and no-one could have read them better

[martinarthur]

love these tales so well written and wonderfully related by the narrator. Thank you so much for these treasures

[maxinewalters]

These books changed my life, sparked interest in history and made any form of social media completely redundant, I am currently working on a flash man tattoo

This is so strange. My husband calls me the Queen of Coincidence. I have a little copy of Tom Brown's School Days. I never look at it or hear mention of it in any media. Yesterday I came across it on the bookshelf and wondered if it was worth anything. It's really old. Then in the evening I started listening to this and sure enough... Tom Brown's School Days comes up. Now if only there was a horse running somewhere called Tom Brown! I must reread it, it's been a long time.

Just one of the best of the adventure stories and extremely funny

“I thrashed him early on in our acquaintance and he thought all the better of me for it, like a dog to his master”, classic flashman. I’d say he’s one of my two favourite comic characters of all time, the other being Alan partridge. Why no one has made a series of it is beyond me. Who would play the guy would be critical though.... they’d probably make him all woke and caring!

Thank you Timothy West. A perfect performance.
