From 1933..

I think this one is really under-rated. Lots of action, a really
capable bad-guy with a plausible, torn-from-the-headlines scheme,
exotic locale. It finishes up the POLAR TREASURE action. Good to
read the two of them back-to-back, but it doesn't hurt to read them
separate.

Why is it not on more top 10, 25 lists? I'm thinking that it is just
too politically incorrect for modern readers -- too much kicking of
slant-eyed, half-breed butt.

It may not be on a top ten list but it is on my laundry list now. I'll
read this one next. Unaccountably, it was also recommended by the
Asian twins that live next door to me: Suki and Teri Yaki. They may be
koi but soy what? They wok on the wild side.

Dave was right. This yellow menace yarn was pretty good, if you're
fortune enough to have a copy, cookie.
Use your noodle and give it a try if you're yung at heart.
