Title: Off on tangent, waste of time
Review: I found the book on my gf's shelf, and thought it would be fun read. Typically I read the book cover to cover including the Preface etc, which is where I found the warning that this book was NOT a how-to guide. So while I knew what I was getting myself into, I proceeded. At sub 200 pages, this book is filled with fluff, in a typical journalistic fashion the author is bent on telling us what the characters were "eating" while they were going through the motions. I feel this book would have been a pamphlet if it wasn't for the unnecessary background information about each case of espionage. I wouldn't recommend this book, through I think if you find your local news channel "entertaining" - you may like it. I found NO take-a-way's from this book. So sad, with a catchy title and cool cover graphics, it could have been a contender. . . .
