review 1: Another of Stross's laundry stories. It wasn't until I started reading it that I realised I had read it before as it appeared in Stross's collection Wireless. Having said that it was still a good re-read and I enjoyed it. I think if you like the series its a good one to try and find. As the title implies our hero Bob visits the farm, but in this case its nothing to do with agriculture, but the funny farm. Normal laundry events follow, so I liked it.
review 2: Although I didn't enjoy the first "Laundry" book I read, this shorter piece has completely redeemed the series for me, and made me really excited about reading more of this series!Laundry agent Bob Howard is sent to check out accusations of abuse at the agency's hospital for agents who have become a danger... more to the outside world. What he finds within the asylum walls is slightly complicated, but filled with some delightful characters. (I'm hoping we see some of them again.) less
