Price's Price is the portrait of an era gone by. A man is swallowed by the Hong Kong night life, girls, and all the environment post WWII, the story is interesting but with quite a few cliches. Entertaining!
I thank the author and NetGalley for the copy of this book.

I began this book with some concern. It seems to epitomise the bygone colonial/sexist views of daring do. A bit James Bond - be it a pensioner Bond looking back on his life. Set through a typical childhood of public school, capital punishment, wealth and privilege with a link to French nobility?
There is too much going on in setting the scene before the move to Hong Kong. I had hoped the plot might fall in with less than the the straying eyes of Stanley Price to any woman that passes into his eyeline but hope was soon dashed.
I am sure the author does know a considerable amount about Hong Kong and hopefully is concerned about the current political situation there but if you want a novel reflecting those interests and a real insight into the people who lived there during the period of English rule to its current difficulties under the wrath of Chinese authority and lack of free speech you need to look to other books.
Not sure what readership this was meant for but it wasn't me.

A well written book and I like how every word was execute. Not my cup of tea, though. I love how was this setting at the past in HongKong and I learned so much about it. I just wish there is more to it than exploring HongKong, like drama and more adventure.

This is a well-written book but it just wasn't for me. I'm sure another reader will enjoy it, though:)

Very interesting. I was kind of confused at times with the way it was written. This book is not like a book that I have read before in the past. I wish there was so more drama to it. Though I did feel I learned a lot about Hong Kong.
