I had some time before work this morning. I was going to read it, but it's just way too depressing right now.

Exceptional book. I've not read it for years. Koestler really gave the feel for what it could be like for the old guard during Stalin's purges. The other two written in the same period... Gladiators and... crap... Departure? were also very good.
