Customer Reviews

Run, Condor, run.

Condor is the code name for an employee of the CIA. His mission is to read, read everything he can, to see if any subversive codes are being posted in innocuous-looking literature. In the book, he discovers that the number of packages shipped to his location does not match the bill of lading. He brings this to the attention of his superiors. One day he leaves by an un-recorded unauthorized back door for lunch. On returning, he finds everyone dead. Who did this, and who can he trust? To survive, he must use his wits and what he has learned from his reading. The movie "Three Days of the Condor" is based on this book, which is the first in a series of books, sort of like the James Bond series. Naturally, being film media, the story needed cutting down to size; hence, three days instead of six. Robert Redford must squeeze James Grady's "Six Days of the Condor" into the Redford mold. The book plot of drugs and Vietnam is out. Redford's substitute plot of oil and Arabs is in. Bad guys differ. Great acting, great actors, and a few faux pas, such as if they knew there was a back door to the location, don't you think it would be watched? Tina Chen (Janice) can be seen again in the movie "Paper Man" (1971), where her computer prints out "DEATH DEATH DEATH"
