Another classic
John le Carre was master of weaving stories with strong and interesting plots, situations and characters. He wrote this with deep intelligence and knowledge. His attention to detail is amazing. My pleasure is being woven into the story without all the bangs and crashes of most stories of this genre. Heartily recommended.

Mediocre
A little disjointed but still enjoyable.
Not the authors best of books. But I finished it.

One of le Carré’s better books, a disappointing ending, great reading by Michael Jayston
I was pleasantly surprised by this book, which I think deserves to be in the upper tier of the author’s books. The main character may be partly a transposition of the George Smiley but not entirely. There are also ingredients that go into the little drummer girl. It seems to be a framework that suits the author well. I found the story compelling but the ending I thought was disappointing. Brilliantly read and voice acted as usual by Michael Jayston

My least favourite Le Carre title. 4 stars!
Excellent narration. Storyline was good but not quite the usual Le Carre brilliance. Good to hear Michael Jayston though.

Good, but not great, le Carre
All le Carre is worth a read or listen, but this far from his best. It is about three characters, two of whom we never really meet or engage with.
The third is the (reliable?) narrator whom I never really got to like
The story, like all le Carre, is engaging enough but, again, lacked the need-to-care qualities of his best work
Excellently read, however.
My rating would have been 3.5 if this were an option

Classic Le Carre
Good story. Interesting background in the Russian satellite states. Excellent reader who brought action to life.

Think I need to try the paperback...
...difficult to hang on to the thread on audio book... but then I struggled to follow one of the more recent Le Carre films - maybe Le Carre is just one step too far for me, when I'm seeking to lose myself in a good story, rather than have to work at following it.
