I've heard about this series many times, and my library only has books 1, 2 and 5. Since it starts out with Flashman getting expelled from school, mentioned in Tom Brown's School Days, does it matter much if I haven't read Tom Brown's School Days?
I'm tempted to pick this up as the omnibus over in the UK. Sadly, not £10, but £40 is still about half the price of the US editions.
