Negative Positive
Title: Super Reader
Review: A fun combination of Lovecraft monsters, evil ratzis, spies, and Yes Minister, with a touch of Snow Crash.Robert Howard works for 'The Laundry' - the slang name for the spook agency that deals with thaumaturgical, paranormal and invasion by cold, alien intelligences from other universe.Interesting lengthy essay at the end where Stross talks about the spy novel as horror novel, due to the horrible looming real life threat of nuclear armageddon that was the thread running through a large number of them in recent times.Entertaining solution for useless paperclip counting backstabbing office politicking bureaucrats, too!
