In Volume II 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. In this volume of The Flashman Papers, 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 beauiful 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.

Great fun as Flashman strikes again!
By Tom Gillis
What can I say? The second of the Flashman series of books, this is a thoroughly enjoyable romp through Germany and England in the late 1840s. This is not the best of the bunch (I found "Flashman and the Redskins" and "Flashman at the Charge" to be stronger), but great fun, nonetheless (as well as hard to put down). Difficult as it is to believe, there appears to be a greater emphasis on "rogering" here than in the other books.
If you've read (and enjoyed) other Flashman books, then you know what to expect: go ahead and read this, you won't be disappointed. If you haven't read "Flashman" yet -- what are you waiting for? This is great fun, you won't be sorry. [If you're really easily offended by bad behavior in novels, then you may want to look elsewhere.]
Oh, yes, and there are footnotes, so it must all be true.

Just the man I want to follow out of danger....
By A Customer
I stumbled upon what looks to be an addictive series of
books following the rise, fall and sidestep of the ne'er do
well 19th Century Englishman named Flashman. A self-
professed coward and rake, he nevertheless finds himself
embroiled in some of the most significant events of his time.
This particular episode is basically Woody Allen meets the
Prisoner of Zenda, with a splash of Lady Chatterly thrown in
for good measure. Whether read for the ribald and entertaining takes on history, or just the humourous escapades, Royal
Flash is time well spent.

Goodnight, Prince Harry...I mean, Prince Carl
By H. S. Wedekind
" 'I have every confidence in de Gautet,' says Bismarck. 'With a sabre he can split a fly on the wing.'
I was listening to them appalled; these two monsters calmly discussing the best means of giving me a slashed head. If there is one thing I can't endure, it is pain, and the thought of cold steel slicing into my skull nearly made me swoon." - Flashman commenting on a casual conversation between Otto von Bismarck and Rudi von Starnberg (ROYAL FLASH)
Once again, Harry finds himself at the mercy of his tormentors. Having been tricked by a vengeful Lola Montez to travel from England to Munich, the capital of Bavaria, Flashy finds himself the center of a plot by Prussian Count Otto von Bismarck to annex the provinces of Schleswig and Holstein, claimed by both Denmark and Germany, thus unifying a fragmented confederation of German states into what will eventually become modern day Germany. In order to do this, old nemesis Otto forces our cowardly and unwilling anti-hero to assume the identity of Danish Prince Carl Gustav, who bears an uncanny resemblance (sans capital hair and mustaches) to himself. The only things missing to make the disguise perfect are two "schlager" scars on his head. A schlager is a long sword with a large handguard that was used by German university students to inflict fashionable scars on each other's face or head when dueling. Anyway, our lovable rogue assumes the role of the imprisoned prince and through bluff and fear for his life weds the beautiful Irma, Duches of Strackenz, and...well, I won't give the good stuff away. If the plot of this, the second packet of the "Flashman Papers", sounds suspiciously like Anthony Hope's Victorian adventure novel THE PRISONER OF ZENDA, it's because Hope took the idea for his literary romance from Flashy's "real-life experiences."
This is a rollicking good adventure and one true Flashmaniacs will enjoy reading again and again. I highly recommend ROYAL FLASH, but suggest readers unfamiliar with the humorously faint-hearted exploits of Harry Flashman, Esq. first read FLASHMAN (Packet # 1 of the "Flashman Papers").
