Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrifically funny!
Review: Ever read anything by Donald Westlake? He's the author of many comedy/mystery/spy novels. This one definitely ranks among his best. An "ordinary guy" is recruited, through various machinations, to perform spy work. You get to follow him on a marvellous Jackie-Chan-meets-James-Bond kind of adventure, chock full of supercool, improbable, ridiculous gadgets and the wry Westlake humor that sometimes punches you in the gut while you're laughing. Really, if you're looking for a good read and a great time, pick this one up. (If it ever gets reprinted. :( ) You'll finish it and wish there was more!
