Review: A great addition to the series

A great short story in the Laundry series from Charles Stross, with the usual knowing and humorous analysis of bureaucracy everywhere. This time the hero, Bob (not his real name), has to guard the office over the Christmas break, and naturally all is not quiet, and there are things stirring that don't wish well to humanity. Make sure you have read some of the other books before reading this one though, as I suspect that it wouldn't make a lot of sense to someone who had no knowledge of the series. If you haven't read Stross and you like smart, funny sci fi that includes sharp analysis of human foibles then read this series.
