James Bond Replacement?
Great castings! There were plenty action and some parts do pull at your heartstrings (I'm looking at you Mr. Pickles and you too Harry!). The new take on a spy movie was great. The jokes didn't fall flat. "Manners Maketh Man". Now go and watch it!

Tense and thrilling
Fantastic series
A fantastic tv series. Got completely hooked on it, although its not something I'd automatically look at, Im glad I did. It's tense and emotional, wraps you up and draws you into their world of deception and intrigue. Best spy fiction I've ever watched.

Well written with no trace of sparkly vampires, I'm sold. Kidding, it's a whole different genre.

This spy thriller was worth the read.

The characters were memorable and well developed.

The plot was solid and no holes presented themselves.

The story was well executed and it provided a nice escape.

One of the finest debuts of all time...
One of the finest debuts of all time, and thanks to John le Carré, a fine writer and real life secret service employee, one of the most realistic spy novels written.

Not only is this an excellent debut from le Carré, but an introduction to one of the greatest fictional spies, George Smiley, best known from "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy".

This may seem a strange one, but the book is quite short, which is a good thing. I enjoy books short and long, but this is excellent for some light reading, and the best place to start with le Carré's books is definitely at the start!
