In case anyone's interested in the novel

The link has a couple of pages missing and some misspelled words, but is otherwise intact.

I had it on paperback once. Brilliant stuff, and in case anyone asks the film did it great justice, making legitimate adjustments that contributed to its tension and thrills.

Thanks. Fyi your link doesn't work. The one below does.

Just get a library card. Or buy the book. It's a good book.

Yes, it's a terrific book. It's always tough, though, when you read a book first, to accept some of the changes that are made for the movie.

One of my favorites, Six Days of the Condor, getting shortened up to, Three Days of the Condor, for the movie.
