I really enjoyed reading Slow Horses - the author did a great job of balancing descriptive background information and thrilling action to create a really exciting story that builds to an amazing climax. The first few chapters were a bit slower, but things really picked up as the story progressed and there were so many surprising plot twists that kept me hooked until the very end. I can't wait to read the sequel!
The first in the Slough House series with the MI5 Second (or possibly Third) XI and while unsurprisingly enjoyable it felt like Herron hadn't quite got the formula right yet. Still, the elements are all here, ludicrous Spooks-esque plots, LeCarre style politicking, sudden unexpected levels of violence and Jackson Lamb.
Smart, experienced, corpulent, chain smoking. cynical and master of the withering insult, Lamb is the grotesque beating heart of the series and a supreme comic creation
