Title: The Ipcress File Author: Len Deighton Narrator: James Lailey Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 46 mins Language: English Release date: 03-27-14 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Espionage Publisher's Summary: Len Deighton's classic first novel, whose protagonist is a nameless spy - later christened Harry Palmer and made famous worldwide in the iconic 1960s film starring Michael Caine. The Ipcress File was not only Len Deighton's first novel, it was his first best seller and the story that broke the mould of thriller writing. For the working class narrator, an apparently straightforward mission to find a missing biochemist becomes a journey to the heart of a dark and deadly conspiracy. The film of The Ipcress File gave Michael Caine one of his first and still most celebrated starring roles, while the novel itself has become a classic. Critic Reviews: "A spy story with a difference." (Observer)"A masteroffictional espionage." (Daily Mail)"The poet of the spy story.' Sunday TimesThe Ipcress File helped change the shape of the espionage thriller... the prose is still as crisp and fresh as ever... there is an infectious energy about this book which makes it a joy to read, or re-read." (Daily Telegraph)"The self-conscious cool of Deighton's writing has dated in the best way possible... a stone-cold cold war classic." (Guardian)"Deighton is so far in the front of other writers in the field that they are not even in sight'" (Sunday Times)"Nobody now seriously doubts that Deighton is the most credible of all the spysmiths" (The Scotsman)"Regarded as the cold war spy thriller that made all subsequent examples of the genre possible... however much of a classic the film is, the book is a completely different proposition. It's more intricate and far superior... a must for anyone who likes this kind of fiction." (Loaded)
