The Game of X

by Robert Sheckley
The Game of X by Robert Sheckley
Unrated

Here is a spy-tangled novel of undercover misadventure that goes from Paris to Venice by ways of intrigue that 007 never dreamed of – with semi-professional killers, submissive subversives and a swinging Mata Hari from Hunter College. This is upmanship espionage at its funniest.
