This is great fun. Short stories about spies. From WWII thru the Cold War to modern Europe and Iraq. I've found them all very interesting in their way; only have a few left. ( )
Short stories. What can I say? I'm not usually a fan, and this book did nothing to change that. But then it's always a lose/lose situation for me with the short story because the ones I enjoy end much too soon and the ones I don't care for seem to drag on forever. Few of the stories here ended too soon for me. ( )
What a disappointment this book was! I've enjoyed the novels of several of the authors whose short stories are contained in this anthology, and was looking forward to taking pleasure in the stories of those whom I had not yet read. But mediocrity infused this collection through-and-through. It took me forever to finish the book, since none of the stories stoked my enthusiasm to go on to the next one. If there's one reason I'm glad I hung on, however, it's that Olen Steinhauer's contribution--the last in the book--managed to hit his usual high standard. ( )
