I, for one, was deeply offended by the reviewer dismissing Mainspring as "just another boys' adventure", as if boys' adventure stories were, somehow, unworthy things in themselves. I don't think I could have got through some of the rockier parts of early puberty had it not been for Kim. Perhaps that reviewer would have denied me that pleasure, on the grounds that it would lead me to become a supporter of British imperialism or some such nonsense.
