Just finished the first book in Michael Dibdin's Aurelio Zen series, Ratking. It was okay, I found Zen to be too passive for my taste. He just let's everything happen to him not taking charge. Even when he solves the case it's very underwhelming. Years ago I read the second to last Zen book and really liked it. If this was the only book of the series I'd read I wouldn't be sure if I would continue with the next one.
