The Pandarus File

There is a lot to like about this book although it is tonally odd. Chiefly a 50's era noir-ish thriller, it also has a sly humour. However, it did feel like it needed some better (or, possibly, just some) editing, particularly given the numerous grammatical and formatting errors. An editor would probably have tightened up (or removed entirely) the modern sections, which never really felt like they added anything to the story (which was good enough on its own). So, in summary, a good story that maybe could have done with a bit more work.
