cdasher 's review for:

Last Friends by Jane Gardam
3.0

Last Friends, the final book in Gardam's Old Filth trilogy, doesn't quite live up to the standard set by its older siblings. Still, I'd recommend it for Old Filth fans who want to know more about Veneering, Filth's rival in love and law. Two minor characters from the series also get a charming storyline. I love Gardam's prose, but this book was jumpy, filled with unnecessary coincidences, and much of it would be incomprehensible to anyone who hasn't read the first two books.
