2. Yes I think you are right. My problem is I didnt read them in order. I read Smiley's people first

a long time ago and forgot about Karla. But you reminded me of the daughter.
I am reading "The Honourable School Boy", as I write this message.

5. Here....as always, Wiki is a friend.

Smiley's People is a spy novel by John le Carré, published in 1979. Featuring British master-spy George Smiley, it is the third and final novel of the "Karla Trilogy", following Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and The Honourable Schoolboy. George Smiley is called out from retirement for the last time to investigate the death of an old British agent, a former Soviet General turned British agent living anonymously in retirement in London. Smiley learns the General had discovered information that would lead to a final confrontation with George Smiley's nemesis, the Soviet spy-master Karla.

6. yes thank you. I should have looked there. I even have read Smiley's People but it was years ago.

Before I knew who Karla really was.

7. Wiki is great for finding the series order of lots of books.

I keep a special folder for books, and am always adding the Wiki information.

You gave me an idea. I have not read LaCarre for many years, it might be time to try it again.

8. You Can Get The Smiley Series TV Shows On Netflix.

Alec Guiness as Smiley. Doesn't get any better than that......
