Thanks for posting this, Jim (and congratulations on your
active status in MWA).
I read "Shibumi" when I was 15 or 16. I was blown away by it.
I tried to read "The Main" as a follow-up, but it didn't hold
my teen-aged attention. Come to think of it, the hero's
girlfriend in
"Shibumi" might have been a large part of what kept me
turning the pages. Ah, youth!
Perhaps it's time I gave "The Main" another whack, although
my attention span might be a bit shorter, what with turning
40, and all.
Anyone else delved into Trevanian's works? I was always
impressed with the fact that his books sold so well without
him needing to do anything much to publicize them.
Best-
Brian Thornton
