The Nightmare Stacks: A Laundry Files novel (English Edition) Kindle Ausgabe

Englisch Ausgabe von Charles Stross (Autor) Format: Kindle Ausgabe
4,6 von 5 Sternen 3.677 Sternebewertungen

Alex Schwartz had a great job and a promising future - until he caught an unfortunate bout of vampirism, and agreed (on pain of death) to join the Laundry, Britain's only counter-occult secret intelligence agency.
His first assignment is in Leeds - his old hometown. But the thought of telling his parents he's lost his job, let alone their discovering his 'condition', is causing Alex almost as much anxiety as his new lifestyle of supernatural espionage.
His only saving grace is Cassie Brewer, a student from the local Goth Festival who flirts with him despite his fear of sunlight (and girls). But Cassie has secrets of her own - secrets that make Alex's night life seem positively normal . . .
James Bond meets H. P. Lovecraft in the latest occult thriller from Hugo Award winner Charles Stross, in a series where British spies take on the supernatural.

    5,0 von 5 Sternen One hundred and one useful things to do with a Kettenkraft
    Bewertet in Australien am 26. Dezember 2019
    Verifizierter Kauf
    A very welcome return to form. I thought the Laundry novels had peaked with the Fuller Memorandum, and wasn't too impressed by the next three in the series, but Nightmare Stacks is superb. His elves are terrifically powerful and otherworldy creepy, and I would never have thought he had such a talent for mil-sf (Eurofighter Typhoons v dragons? One hundred and one useful things to do with a Kettenkraft?)

    5,0 von 5 Sternen A fantastic (indeed) novel
    Bewertet in Frankreich am 30. Juni 2016
    Verifizierter Kauf
    Could not stop reading it once I opened it. Like pretty much all of Stross's books, as far as I am concerned (and I also loved The Annihilation Score, I have to say, contrary to some reviewers as I see). Gripping, fascinating, funny too (at times!). And a perfect blend of all possible streams of fantasy, SF and all-over-nerdism, etc. Just read it.

    5,0 von 5 Sternen Stross' Laundry novels are a delight, but he had found some difficulty in the ...
    Bewertet in den USA am23. Juli 2016

    One of the reviews is entitled "back to form" and that says it all. Stross' Laundry novels are a delight, but he had found some difficulty in the last two novels in keeping the superfast, can't-put-it-down, pace of action, innovation, and surprise in an increasingly complex web of interactions revolving around Bob Howard and Dr. O'Brien. By focusing this time on a newbie to the Laundry, and a shy and inexperienced vampire to boot, he brings back the delightful sense of discovery of his first 3-4 Laundry novels. His writing is outstanding as always (except for irritating non-grammatical gerunds, but that may be the fault of his copyeditor and the world, alas, seems to be forgetting grammar more and more) and he brings it down to an ivory-tower type in his first girl encounter with a light touch, friendly, slightly ironic, but never condescending. And for all of us devoted LOTR fans, the entire novel is a bonus surprise, even if perhaps not the one we would have expected... It also clearly presages at least a couple of new novels developing themes around the new characters introduced in this book.
    A must read, but not until you have read at least a couple of of the earlier Laundry series -- it stands well enough alone, but its very rich context from the previous novels would be a shame to miss.
    I'd add two more comments to my original review. One is to stress the rekindled energy and especially humor in the series: like some of the first in the series, this novel is full of very entertaining and sometimes outright hilarious moments. The other is to regret that the author did not do his homework on CS theory -- P-complete is nothing hard (unlike, at least in today's view, NP-complete), and there is a gigantic difference between computability (Church-Turing thesis etc.) and complexity (PSPACE, NP, etc.) For a second printing, I would recommend to the author that he contact a CS theoretician (any university CS dept) to clarify the terminology.

    5,0 von 5 Sternen Hey, it's a Stross.
    Bewertet in Kanada am 5. Juli 2020
    Verifizierter Kauf
    I certainly wouldn't have read this book if I were not looking around for more titles by this author, but I enjoyed it, through and through, in all its wacky nerdiness. Need I say more? It is a much lighter read than Neal Stephenson, but shows the same quality of sci-fi imagination.

    5,0 von 5 Sternen Regular life in the civil service - with a twist
    Bewertet in Großbritannien am 4. Juni 2025
    Verifizierter Kauf
    This is an enjoyable read; there's a moderate build up at the start, then the pace builds consistently. The opposing forces are worryingly formidable.
