A great book, a great character. Forget Bond, Flashman is my hero.
Royal Flash (The Flashman papers)Royal Flash (The Flashman papers) by George MacDonald Fraser
Buy new: £5.59 / Used from: £1.09
Fun - but, as stated in an Amazon review, it is a little too much like The Prisoner of Zenda
Flash for Freedom! (The Flashman Papers)Flash for Freedom! (The Flashman Papers) by George MacDonald Fraser
Buy new: £2.90 / Used from: £2.49
Flashy is back on form, this time in Africa and the Americas. This is not a politically correct book, but at the time of Queen Vic's reign, being "P.C." was not fashionable.

Truly a success, this worked for me and no pains of any kind. The only thing to fear is fear itself.
Silent WitnessSilent Witness by Richard North Patterson

A good, diverting read, if not a little standard in its style and construction.

Ooh, I really enjoyed this book. Filled with black humour that at times had me really laughing
One Fine Day in the Middle of the NightOne Fine Day in the Middle of the Night by Christopher Brookmyre
Buy new: £2.98 / Used from: £0.01
Onward with the Christopher Brookmyre obsession. I really enjoy his books and this one was great.
Country of the BlindCountry of the Blind by Christopher Brookmyre
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.01
Another Brookmyre ! Once again, irreverant humour and another achievement in writing a good thriller while at the same time gently parodying the genre. Highly recommended.
