The Gun Seller

by Hugh Laurie

Grade: Good

A little too much icky stuff. Why do all the girls have to be so attractive? I guess cause it's supposed to be some sort of James Bond spoof. But it was annoying none the less.

But it was hilarious other than that. I liked how it starts.

"Imagine that you have to break someone's arm.
...
Now, my question goes like this: do you break the arm quickly--snap, whoops, sorry, here let me help you with that improvised splint--or do you drag the whole business out for a good eight minutes, every now and then increasing the pressure in the tiniest of increments, until the pain becomes pink and green and hot and cold and altogether howlingly unbearable?"

It gets better than that, but it's too long to type the whole thing.
