5.0 out of 5 stars A fresh look at the end of the cold war, Dec 27 2006
This review is from: Dunn's Conundrum (Paperback)
Normally I wouldn't read a spy novel written in 1985, but when I picked up Dunn's Conundrum I was hooked by the intelligence and wit of the author. The main character is an archeologist who has stumbled into espionage through his thesis on garbage analysis. His colleagues in a brain-and-technology trust known as "The Library" are an interesting and deviant collection of characters, sort of a personalized version of The Party in Orwell's Oceania.

The Big-Brother-Is-Watching theme flips on its head when we become privy to the sexual misadventures of the Library's denizens. Lee seems at his best when combining technology, sex, and satire. He's not bad on slapstick, as well. A couple of action sequences where our hero manages to defeat his opponents, one of whom is driving a Soviet battle tank, rate favourably against any such passages I have read in a spy novel.

In all, Dunn's conundrum is well worth a read.
