This book is funny, not because it’s supposed to be but because I just finished Leonard’s Riding the Rap. Leonard writes some seriously scary characters. Liss’s tough guy is an English gentleman, so when he threatens to beat up someone, it just sounds funny after being authentically scared by Bobby in Riding the Rap.

I’m about half done with Conspiracy and it’s an okay read. I read a lot of British literature in college so I got a little sick of it. Liss is an America writing like he’s English. The back cover says he was trying to get a Ph. D. in English at the time the book was published, so I’m guessing he had to read a lot of English Literature too.

I hope I’m not sounding too critical; The story is interesting and David obviously knows a lot about British culture.
