Tanner on Ice

Evan Tanner, Book 8

By: Lawrence Block

Narrated by: Theo Holland

Cold War superspy Evan Tanner lost the ability to sleep on a battlefield in Korea. So where the heck has he been since the '70s?

Frozen. Cryogenically. A Tanner-sicle. Which he never thought would happen when he walked into a basement in Union City, New Jersey, more than a quarter century ago. Now he's unthawed and ready to rumble, and his somewhat addled, former super-secret boss, "the Chief", is glad his favorite operative's active again.

Tanner awoke to a different world, though some bad things have remained the same...or gotten worse. Even before he can fully acclimate himself to this perplexing future, Tanner's off to Burma (which isn't really Burma anymore) to pose as a monk, destabilize the government, dodge a lethal double-cross, and rescue a beautiful prisoner.

The world's still full of conspiracy, corruption, greed, political chicanery - and beautiful women. So Tanner's back with a vengeance, with a lot of lost time to make up for.

Tanner on ice

Another good book about Tanner. I had forgotten how good these are. This is my favorite one in the series. It's funny. It also holds your attention from the beginning to the end. I highly recommend this book and the whole series. This is book eight. Tanner was put to sleep and frozen for twenty five years . The world has changed a lot but Tanner is still the same smart sneaky slick creative spy he has always been. All eight books are good . Theo Holland did an excellent job on this book. He also narriates the whole series. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you.
