The Jennifer Morgue

The second Bob Howard book is a genuine delight.
Where the first played with the tropes of a Len Deighton style spy, this one subverts the James Bond archetype.
Full of clever twists and humour, Stross subverts your expectations at every step.
Of all his varied output I think that the Laundry books come out best - he tries a bit too hard with his full-on SF and seems a bit bored of his fantasy series. With the Laundry he\'s just having fun and it shows.
I wholeheartedly recommend that you read both The Atrocity Archives and this one - you will not regret it.
