The Ipcress File (14)

The Ipcress File
Len Deighton
read 5/23/08

This is Deighton's first book with the un-named Harry Palmer character. Like so many of Deighton's book (and spy books in general) it is a bit tedious in the beginning, not much going on, and you can't really see where it is going. Then all of a sudden something happens and they all the pieces fall together. The ending of this one was nice, and even better he goes through all of the other parts (while talking to another character) and explains the significance of them, incase you missed it. A worthy start to the Deighton legacy.
