Brilliant author. I've enjoyed every one of his books and stories that I ever read. I started reading him after watching "The Day if the Jackal" and decided it might be a good read. It was. Maybe I should dust off his books I have and have a good read, and maybe fill in the gaps from the local Oxfam shop
