The dull book that goes on and on that is in front of the book with the small man with feet of hair who has a ring and goes on a quest with dwarves.

Re: Book Title Game (inspired by Cabin Pressure)
The Cold War one I am thinking Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy but there are rather a lot to choose from. I really like TSWCIFTC including the film.

Cold War Tale With A Mole
Almost every cold war plot has a mole.
What about The South Pole by Amundsen? Cold war and a nautic pole?

Oh, I once tried to read that one. Without success. 
What about:

Actually, I was thinking of TTSS - but you're right - there's more than one solution.
Well done!
