Reviews
In the July 1993 edition of Dragon (Issue #207), Rick Swan recalled the stellar work done by Thomas Kane in GURPS Espionoage, "a superb treatment of international intrigue." He likewise admired this book, calling the adventures "heart-thumping plots worthy of Ian Fleming." Swan concluded with a strong recommendation, saying "the adventures feature enough realistic detail to make them convincing, and enough Hollywood gimmickry to keep them fun."
