I finished reading this book a few days ago, and I'm still not quite sure what to think of it. It's interesting, technically, since it's full of spies and international highjinx that are loosely based on historical fact, but it just wasn't that engaging. I think a lot of my lack of interest is due to the fact that all of the characters are rather flat (seriously, even James Bond is more developed as a person, and he's really not a great example of a well-written personality) and barely seem interested in their jobs. They're either suffering from PTSD, but raring to get back in the game, or they're shouting at eachother about not being allowed to do things, and even all of that doesn't seem to quite follow through... Slightly disappointed, since I really wanted to like this series :(… (mehr)
