Resumen del Editor

The next installment in Mick Herron's wry, clever CWA Gold Dagger-winning Slough House series.

The Bond-esque River Cartwight and his group of defunct MI5 spies, headed by the irascible Jackson Lamb, will do anything to get back into the game. When a member of London's Slough House - MI5's stable for disgraced spies, so-called "slow horses" - is kidnapped by a former soldier bent on revenge, the agents must risk treason and breach Regent's Park to steal intel in exchange for their comrade's safety. But the kidnapping is only the tip of the iceberg as they are caught in a conspiracy that threatens the future not only of Slough House but of MI5 itself.

Mick Herron's previous Slough House novel, Dead Lions, won the 2013 CWA Gold Dagger, garnering attention both in the US and UK. These thrillers are complex and contemporary, with an unexpected dose of sly humor. Herron is steadily gaining traction each year in the US, and the film rights to this series have been optioned.

"Funny, clever.... Genuinely thrilling. The novel is equally noteworthy for its often lyrical prose." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Delightful...with a dry humor reminiscent of Greene and Waugh." ( Sunday Times)

Starts off promising, but ends flat

When did novelists start getting paid by the word ? It's the only plausible explanation for Mick Herron's use of meandering and pointless details. Probably a book that is not worth your time.

I loved this book!

Would you listen to Real Tigers again? Why?

I think so. My favorite thing about this book was the language and turns of phrase. So I think I would appreciate this even more on a second listen.

Who was your favorite character and why?

River: He was young and cute. He tried really hard. But.......

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The ending was PERFECT!

Any additional comments?

If you root for the underdog, have ever had a bad boss, and like to laugh in the face of adversity, you will like this book.

And they keep getting better and better!
I look forward to more Jackson Lamb, River Cartwright and the rest.
Great narration, too.

Best book so far in the series

Love how all the characters become more well rounded in each book. Now I can really see what events have occurred in their lives that have caused them to become the people they are. I’d love to see a series or a movie based on this series.

Excellent series

Gripping storylines and great character development. Although Jackson is a cantankerous, slippery old goat, His mind is sharp, I feel he has some good in him deep down. He protects his Joes! Lamb is my favorite character and is funny in a crude sort of way.

Gerard Doyle is an amazing narrator. I am always pleased to see his name in the narration line. Kudos to him.

Go ahead and give this a try, you won’t be sorry.

Great book; awesome narration

This was fabulous. The Slow Horses get a chance to shine! Great job - by the men and women of Slough House, by the author, and by the narrator, Gerard Doyle.

My favorite of the series so far.

Fun, wry, cloak and dagger with humor.

Love the reader’s wry tone. Writing is good and snarky. Fun twist on MI5. Good series.

Really enjoying this series

Would you consider the audio edition of Real Tigers to be better than the print version?

I never read the print version, but both narrators (of Real Tigers and the previous book, Dead Lions) are great. I was sorry to find that the second book had a different reader but ended up loving them both.

What other book might you compare Real Tigers to and why?

Very Smiley's People, lots of spy stuff, gritty and a bit depressing but ultimately hopeful books. I don't read a ton of this kind of book so don't know who to compare them to.

Any additional comments?

Both Dead Lions and Real Tigers are great, the characters, though super annoying and even despicable, are fantastic and engaging and very real. Worth a listen!
