Review: Good if you make it though the first chapter
Rating: 4 out of 5

This book reminds me of the Brewster Rocket cartoons.  Max is not particularly bright, but he is a hero who recognizes his strengths and failings, and perseveres regardless of hardships.  If you are looking for some fun reading, with an interesting plot, I highly recommend this book.  I suggest that you need to push through the first chapter because it took me that long to get over my initial expectation of serious spy/hero stuff and accept Max for what he is, an entertaining cross between hero and buffoon.
