Flashman by George MacDonald Fraser
2.0
Not for me.
I have a criteria on humor based on objectionable material - almost anything is acceptable as long as it's funny. This book was just not funny enough to overcome the negative feelings I had about Harry Flashman.
From a technical standpoint, I had to remind myself that this book was written in the 1960s, because it felt very much like it was written in the time period. Excellently done - I just hated it.
