Product Description

Synopsis
Shirking the defence of the Indian frontier in the First Sikh War, Flashman opts for secret service in the court of a nymphomaniac Maharani who wears the legendary Koh-i-Noor diamond in her navel. Volume IX of the Flashman Papers. With the mighty Sikh army poised to invade India, every able-bodied man was needed to defend Britannia's frontier. When the Call of Duty came, Flashman had his answer ready: 'I'll drown in blood first!' Alas for poor Flashy there was no avoiding the terrors of secret service in the debauched and intrigue-ridden court of the Punjab, the attentions of its beautiful nymphomaniac Maharani, the horrors of its torture chambers, or the dread influence of the Mountain of Light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yet another true classic, 30 April 2000
I am nearly halfway through the collection and this one based on the great battles for northern India continually matches the detailed content and fast paced humour that has become a trademark for our Great British hero Flashman and of course George MacDonald Fraser. Start with the original Flashman novel and work through them to this, you will be most amused!

5.0 out of 5 stars loved it, 24 Mar 2000
By A Customer
all the flashman series are great, but this one about the legendary koh-i-Noor diamond ( which is apparently cursing the royal family as we speak!) is the best, buy it

3.0 out of 5 stars Worth a read
Flashman and the Mountain of Light has plenty of intigue but, for long sections, lacks the pace and page-turning qualities of most of the other books in the series. Read more
