A CENTURY OF SPY FICTION: REFLECTIONS ON THE GENRE brings together Nader Elhefnawy's writings on that subject. From the birth of the spy story in the marriage of detective fiction with the invasion story to the genre's post-Cold War travails, from the forgotten but hugely important adventures of the original international man of mystery Duckworth Drew to the reimagining of Jason Bourne, from the notorious weirdness of the Bond villains to the prose style of John le Carre, they trace the broader history while peering at many a keyhole to see just what has been going on all the while in this often mysterious genre about mystery.Nader Elhefnawy's books include James Bond's Evolution; Cyberpunk, Steampunk and Wizardry; Star Wars in Context; The Military Techno-thriller: A History; and the novels Surviving the Spike and The Shadows of Olympus. You can find him online at his blog, Raritania.
