Categorization is odious. There is tremendous overlap among genres. These pigeonholes are offered only as a convenience.

Just about any of the McGee novels are great reads. They are good airplane reads, engrossing and portable (used bookstores usually have a number of paperbacks).
The Girl, the Gold Watch and Everything is a bit of a sidetrack for him and seems to have been written for TV. Not very successfully.
