1.75

Unbelievably boring, with flat characters constantly self-sabotaging, relying on how sexy you find the female characters and how riveting you find the lives of wealthy Swiss bankers. Clumsy plot twists are sprinkled throughout, but none clever enough to warrant the nearly 600pg page count. I can only recommend this books to fans of James Bond who are unironic fans of all its flaws.
