Title: Non PC
Product review: This is the first in a series of books written by Sax Rohmer and published in 1913. The writing is breathless and compelling - lots of adjectives and action - the "hanging off the end of a rope at the end of the chapter" kind of writing. I enjoyed it, if for nothing more than the blatant racism which is SOO non pc and of its era. Dr Fu Manchu is an evil genius, the Yellow Peril, that must be stopped at all costs. He is so much of a caricature that it's like reading a comic really - a hoot. I don't think I'll bother to read any more as I suspect it's more of the same - but it is definitely worth reading, just to remind ourselves of how far (or not) we've come.
