dogearedandfurry 's review for:

The 39 Steps by John Buchan
2.0

Preferred the film I saw, and the play (which is a comedy). They've changed things from the book - or else I didn't recognise supporting characters. And wow does Buchan go on about the terrain and landscape... Sometimes I just read without trying to imagine, as it was a lot of vales and hills and gorse and streams and ditches and... Well anyway. Decent story but could do with less geography descriptions.
