I don't usually review books before I've reached the ending, but this is an exhilarating tour-de-force, possibly the best in the series yet. Not sure if it's the character of James Spooner who reinvigorates the narrative, or the broader thriller conceit which casts the characters we know and love in an unexpected light. But the leather walls and secret corridors of Steele's have never seemed to menacing.

Obviously I am here because of the fantastic podcast. This book is perhaps only 1 star for content but 5 stars for the joy it has brought me and so many others.

Things slow down a little in the fifth instalment of Belinda Blinked and - as the podcast hosts note - it's worth remarking that this is the first book Flintstone was writing after the podcast commenced (although while still in its early days). There are occasional traces of callbacks and references which hopefully won't lead to too much self-awareness on the part of the writer going forward!

This is still legendary stuff although something has shifted, hasn't it? Perhaps it's that the "sex" (if we can call it that) seemed to have more of a purpose in the first books, whether for business introductions, negotiations, or commiserations (all perfectly reasonable justifications; no shame). Now, characters are often to be found bumping uglies while just passing the time. It seems as if things have become a bit sillier all around. (Early sequences such as Dr Stud are barely permissible!)

But things do take off in East Berlin and then the introduction of the fantastically-named Cosmo Macaroon. As an Australian, I can attest to Rocky's detailed verisimilitude when it comes to recreating my country.

What's next for Steele's? It is, literally, anyone's guess.

***update on do 16 sept. 2021***
I was looking around on Amazon and typed in 'Belinda Blinked'. No idea why but I saw that they had them in paperback now! Only... For some reason some of them are super expensive in Amazon.(my country) but in Germany they are the normal price.

So I bought the whole set. I'm weak and now I can annotate while I'm listening. Which is a bit weird to think about because I will only read it while listening to the podcast 'My Dad Wrote a Porno' so my annotations will reflect that. Do I need a cd or something that I put next to it for future Belinkers? So they know what to listen to while reading?… (plus d'informations)
