Tims Too Many Books | Flashman (and the Alternatives) by George MacDonald Fraser @timstoomanybooks | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
In which I talk about George MacDonald Fraser's Flashman novels.
I also suggest some Altenatives in case the Colonialism and Sexual Politics of the novels are found upsetting.

This is also an announcement for the FlashmanAlternatives tag
1. There are 12 Flashman books.
2. Read the books (or just the synopses)
3. Suggest some alternative reading for each book

I tag @anotherbibliophilereads (Good Luck)

Also @saintdonoghue because he says he never gets tagged
