Lamya Mohammed _asta_uchacha — I kind of knew I wouldn't like this small book... I don't often see the point of these special "guides" to popular series -- I've yet to find one I like (and doubt I will til either the Twilight or Harry Potter guides come out). The two short stories were mediocre and the rest of the content was useless. I think even diehard fans would find a hard time justifying owning this book.

Marise Lashley tonylashley — The first thing I have to say is IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE FIRST TWO BOOKS IN THE TRILOGY, DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT READING THIS BOOK! Okay, sorry 'bout the all caps, but you cannot possibly read this book in isolation and enjoy it in the way that it was meant to be savored and enjoyed. This is the ultimate book in a trilogy, and all the pieces come together, characters deepen, brief glimpses of characters and places make sense, and the hard work that you've done to get to this point because of le Carre's dense, dense writing finally pays off. This is great stuff. The Smiley trilogy (Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy; The Honourable Schoolboy and this one) require so much work to get through and understand. le Carre does almost all showing and no telling and because of this I spent about 2/3 of Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy just wondering what the heck was going on. Once I got to this book, I was throwing the lingo around like the best of those "circus" spies and saying things to my husband like, "I'm not sure if I like the housekeepers or the lamplighters better, but I sure know that Connie Sachs is brilliant!" I think he had to pick up the books just to understand me. So, to the story in this one. A murder in the middle of the night spurs a phone call to retired British secret agent George Smiley. He's grumpy and irascible, but no one works the pavement like him. MI6 promises to deny everything if anyone suspects that they're involved, so George has to go it alone (along with the help of his other retired friends) as he works along the skeins of a very tangled cobweb. Fortunately, the skeins seem to lead to his archnemesis Karla. If you're at all interested in Cold War history, real, gritty spy stories and just amazing dialogue, these are your books. Please read them!

庄 青 _ing_z — This book has me a bit torn. I do love the characters and the plot. But both suffered in this book, with the end leaving us...um, about the same place as the beginning. Most of the book seems to just be a showcase for how the world has changed, and all conversations are engineered to give us more information about this. This comes across pretty wooden, as do the love stories, even the bad attempt at a love triangle. Also, the writing is very ham-handed. He never gives you a hint if he can bash you over the head with the information itself. BUT... The writing improved DRAMATICALLY at the very end and was fantastic! Also, I do still love the series and will keep reading.
