The Lives of Tao

Intriguing (but not new) theme of symbiotic body inhabitation. The publisher is clearly using font and paragraph inset to distinguish characters in the ebook format but it's not done in a consistent manner and causes me confusion. I probably would have found another way of presenting multiple interior and exterior characters in the same scene, easier to follow. How did they handle this for audio mediums?

And I am a fan of the cold-war era spy stories, especially the dark, gritty types of Le Càrre, which this seems to be like. I'm just not interested at the moment.
