The Fuller Memorandum by Charles Stross is the third book of the Laundry Files series. It is better than the the second book of the series, but not quite as good as the first. Pretty much more of the same. Nothing really stands out about this one. Back to more of the eldritch horror stuff and less of the spy thriller stuff. Plenty of secrets and conspiracies without them becoming the main thread of the book.
The author is continuing with the multiple viewpoint characters. The main character is who we follow for most of the book, but there are asides for several other characters. It is handled better then in the previous book, but still a little jarring. I do wish the book would stick with just the main character’s viewpoint with, maybe, one or two asides for important bits that need to be shown that the main character doesn’t know.
There was a cool twist at the end involving magic. The magic system in this series isn’t very well worked out compared to many others. The twist was still logical enough that it was very plausible and gave the main character a great loophole to influence the events during the book’s climax. Not a whole lot more to say about the story. Was good and I would recommend it. Probably not a good place to start reading the series.
