Bob Howard is a computer-hacker desk jockey, who has more than enough trouble keeping up with the endless paperwork he has to do on a daily basis. He should never be called on to do anything remotely heroic. But for some reason, he is.

I don't give many 5-star ratings, but The Atrocity Archives deserves one. You may need to read it with a web browser open to look up references using Wikipedia or Google, but if you enjoy Torchwood, Men in Black, or [b:Snow Crash 830 Snow Crash Neal Stephenson http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1157396730s/830.jpg 493634], I think you'll enjoy this one.The volume actually includes the novel and a novella, The Concrete Jungle. Both are good reading, and I recommend giving yourself time to enjoy the foreword and afterword, as well.
This kind of story is just not for me.
Did not finish the second of the two.
I liked it, the premise and the adventures are interesting and creepy.
I studied physics and computers and make my living programming but the lectures on the magic physics were a bit too many and too long.
I will read more of these in the future.
Took me a bit to get used to the narrator, but ended up getting drawn in. Very exciting!
