I saw the black and white movie for this years and years ago and it's been on my tbr ever since. It's a very quick read, and not very emotionally investing, relying almost exclusively on dialogue and physical descriptions, or using words like "fear" and "scared", as in "he was scared". But that was also the style/convention of how things were written at the time this was published I'm sure. My particular version was in a story collection and could definitely have used some editing as there were several cringy misspellings and other typos. But those errors actually made me wonder in 2 different spots if sections had been cut out, because the jump in time and focus from one line to the next (one had a section break, but one didn't) was so massive it felt like too much time had been skipped and that at least a bit of writing must have been removed.

The only reason I got this book at all was because my high school put on a play version of it, and the cover is retro beautiful. I have a thing for old hardcover bindings like this. But while the story was fast moving (only 177 pages) and Hannay was an enjoyable character, and even the gimmicks of the plot were amusing, keeping the whole thing lighthearted, I feel like nothing really happened. It was enjoyable while I was reading it but when I wasn't reading it I didn't feel particularly motivated to continue. It wasn't bad by any means, I just felt 'meh'. I wasn't totally sure what to expect anyways, but the ending felt sort of like a trick question, cheap in its underhandedness but with only yourself to blame because you should have seen it coming given the world's real history. Entertaining and quick, which kept me from disliking it, but overall not very memorable or amazing.
