Howard, Bob * * Howard
4 stars
Content warning In this book, it is revealed that Bob's middle names are "Oliver Francis". His last name is Howard. That makes his initials BOFH. If that doesn't ring a bell, go ahead and search for "Bastard Operator From Hell" and enjoy!
In this second installment, we continue to follow the bumbling-through-the-strategery-awesome-at-the-tactical necromantic shenanigans of Bob Howard as he stumbles through yet another eldritch mystery. This time, he is saddled with the author's channeling of Ian Fleming, and he applies a James Bond geas on our hero and those around him.
I loved this one for some of the better hacking lingo in the series, the emergence of Mo from her Laundry training, and the general ridiculous nature of the story. (which is really all I tune in for).
