Book Review: The Gone-Away World

 Nick Harkaway, son of famed spy novelist John le Carre, steps out of his father's shadow with this unique book. I, for one, can't think of another book that combines the elements of kung-fu, mimes, philosophy, anti-corporatism, and the end of the world so deftly and engagingly. Basically, if you're looking for a science-fiction fantasy/comedy/epic, this is the book for you. I'd say more, but that'd start giving things away, and the description I've given would've sold me on it already.

  1. I'm sold. Maybe I'll use some sort of library and get it.
