Description

There are many spy thrillers in the market but most of them are novels. Someone suggest that it is difficult to write short spy stories. In fact, some James Bond movies were adapted from Ian Fleming's short stories. Writing short thrillers is challenging but totally possible. On the other hand, some critics say that speculative element is totally incompatible with espionage thrillers that should be highly realistic. Blending the spy story with speculative elements is entertaining at all. An obvious example is Inception directed by Christopher Nolan. Here are ten strange spy thrillers. Hope you enjoy them!
