«Flashman and the Dragon» is the historical adventure novel by George MacDonald Fraser, published by HarperCollins in hardcover (416 pages, in English).
In 1860s China, Harry Flashman, decorated with the Victoria Cross but cowardly and boastful, finds himself embroiled in an international mission in which he crosses paths with an opium trafficker, a bandit queen seeking a husband, and the emperor's concubine, while British and French troops advance towards the Forbidden City.
Volume 10 of the «The Flashman Papers» series, whose subtitle in this edition is «From the Flashman Papers, 1860».
For lovers of historical fiction with action, humor and a far from heroic protagonist.
George MacDonald Fraser was a British author and screenwriter. He is best known for a series of works that featured the character Flashman. Over the course of his career he wrote eleven novels and one short-story collection in the Flashman series of novels, as well as non-fiction, short stories, novels and screenplays—including those for the James Bond film Octopussy, The Three Musketeers and an adaptation of his own novel Royal Flash.
