Nothing Much to Write Home About,

This review is from: Janus Man (Hardcover)
Like Janus, this book had two faces, one bad and one ugly. I do not mind it if an author is going to pass off an old, well-used story line on us - this is the spy mole hunt with the odd pairing of hinters, but you have to make it interesting. We just kind of moved through this book at a plodding pace that never picks up, the characters are so weakly described that you really never care to find out what happens. I heard he was a good author so I struggled through to the end, but I now regret the lost time.

2.0 out of 5 stars
The average spy roman,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Janus Man (Paperback)
This book could have been much, much better if Forbes would have described better his characters. The story is about a Russian spy known as Balkan, who is the head of one of the European headquarters of the SIS. The chief of the European sector, Tweed, tries to find out, who the black sheep is. His help is a newswriter called Newman who is actually his bodyguard. The plot is too simple and the characters don't really have "faces". If we forget about this, the book is good, readable, but not so much enjoying. That's the cause of the 2 stars.
