The Cobweb

3.5 My first ‘spy novel' I enjoyed. Good plot, characters who didn't seem too artificial. Nothing amazing, but much more engaging than anything on spies I have read before. This indeed is quite weird, as I enjoy spy movies and did like detective books as a teenager. This one though is the first after a couple of tries (with classics like john le Carré) which made me pretty pessimistic about them. This one though, maybe due to world building or character construction more similar to scifi or suspense, made me quite engaged in the storyline and fairly attached to the characters. I also had it as an audiobook and a couple of longer road trips.
