Brisk fiction for Avengers fans, bringing the whole set of main protagonists - Steed and all his partners - from each of the 1960s series. There's a familiar, reborn protagonist as well. Fans will probably either despair of the canon being mucked about or delight in the retro implausibility of what is, after all, an old and always fantastically tongue-in-cheek series. For all these reasons, it's hard to critique; this is a book pretty much solely driving a plot which fairly adeptly juggles characters and situations which work better on screen.
