I really enjoyed the Flashman books.
re:He was still working there when the first Flashman book was published in 1969. ... A further 11 followed, the last in 2005. ... George MacDonald Fraser wrote 11 Flashman novels...
So, which is it, 11 or 12 books... /grin

For once the author of the newspaper article is right. There were 12 books, 11 novels and 1 book consisting of three short stories. Among the short stores Flashman encounters (he doesn’t actually meet them) Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, of some fame in the Victorian era. He also is thoroughly manipulated and scammed by his own granddaughter, who proves herself a worthy descendant of the great fraud Flashman himself.
