About this ebook

View our feature on Charles Stross' The Fuller Memorandum.

National bestselling author Charles Stross brings back Bob Howard-"a British super spy with a long-term girlfriend, no fashion sense, and an aversion to martinis" (San Francisco Chronicle)

Bob Howard is taking a much needed break from the field to catch up on his filing in The Laundry's archives when a top secret dossier known as The Fuller Memorandum vanishes-along with his boss, who the agency's executives believe stole the file.

Determined to discover exactly what the memorandum contained, Bob runs afoul of Russian agents, ancient demons, and the apostles of a hideous faith, who have plans to raise a very unpleasant undead entity known as the Eater of Souls...

Ratings and reviews

Certainly, one should start at Atrocity Archives, but this book is a worthy entry, and significantly moves the overall plot of the Laundry series forward. The combination of wit under pressure and haplessness of the main character is continued in this entry with all of the humor, drama and insight of the first books in the series.

More horror, less comedy that the previous books in this series. Damn good.

Can't get enough of Bob Howard's life
