This review is from: Chinese Agent (A Jerry Cornell novel) (Paperback)

The Chinese Agent is a spy satire of the 1960s English variety. Jerry Cornell is obviously a Jerry Cornelius type riff, but it is not done in the same whacky open to interpretation way that the Cornelius stories are.

It is a confrontation between two super agent types, one Chinese, if you could believe that. A hapless crim keeps getting in the way of the resolution of this duel though, which is somewhat entertaining.
