this did its job. kept me busy and entertained and coming back. i didn't learn anything about the world and the complexity of conflict, only about how the CIA possibly operates. it seems an outdated model, at least if Mark Mazzetti's The Way of the Knife, which i have not read but have heard discussed on Fresh Air, is to be believed. the world steinhauer depicts is till a le carré-ian world, and there is nothing wrong with that. it's gripping and it's fun. as my friend gina pointed out, though, it's steinhauer world lacks le carré's tortured moral center. but i didn't care. i just wanted milo to be okay, and the bad guys to stop giving him grief. i docked a star when i realized i'm not that interested in the sequel.
