title: Spy Fiction: A Connoisseur's Guide
author:  Donald McCormick 
description: McCormick--the prolific author of spy fiction (under the name Richard Deacon) and of Who's Who in Spy Fiction (LJ 9/15/77)--and Fletcher--also well versed in the genre--have the credentials to attempt one of the few overviews of the spy fiction genre. Their compilation of 225 authors (mostly American and British) supplies biographical, bibliographical, and critical information on each author. Their informative essays attempt to create some structure to the genre. The weaknessnes, however, are the source of critical information (the author her/himself); the admitted lack of comprehensiveness; and use of real names rather than better-known pen names to list authors, although the index cross-references pen names to real names.<br /><i>- Martin J.

  The town of Silverside and all secret technologies are products of my
  imagination. If I’m abducted by grim-faced men wearing dark glasses, or if I
  die in an unexplained fiery car crash, you’ll know I accidentally came a
  little too close to the truth.
  
    
    
  
  This is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events
  portrayed in this novel are products of my imagination or are used
  fictitiously. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is entirely
  coincidental. I’m not a police officer, so any inaccuracies in police
  procedures represented in this book are entirely my own mistakes or
  fabrications and not the true actions, policies, or attitudes of the Regina
  Police Service or its officers.
