Very Funny

Not the book I first thought it was going to be (I knew nothing of the book beforehand), so I personally had to struggle for the first few pages -- I had expected something with a little more depth to the characters (akin to "Lightning on the Sun" by Robert Bingham - (also about a Westerner trapped in the Far East) which I recommend as well), but after settling on the fact that this is a fairly glib satire with a super-shallow arse of a main character I really started to enjoy the book. I found myself laughing days later when recalling scenes from the book.
