Our view
“The Camel Club” starts as a Washington conspiracy thriller and keeps escalating well past the point where a tamer book would stop. It introduces a band of misfits led by a former assassin who goes by the name Oliver Stone. Some readers relish how extravagant it gets and how readily it laughs at itself, and welcome its sceptical view of American foreign policy, which not everyone shares.
