This novel drags for the first third, but then the good ol’ 1950s spy thriller cheesiness really kicks into gear and we’re off for another entertaining Bond adventure. Though he was slightly less of a douche-canoe this time and there was a lot more action than in Casino Royale, I actually found the ...
3.5 stars purely for the excellent narrator..I don't feel interested in any other 007 story right now..maybe I would finish these some day..for now I'll mark it a s 'lost interest'

* The second Bond book.* Second appearance of Leiter and SMERSH, first of Strangways and Quarrel.* Not quite as interesting or entertaining as Casino Royale, perhaps because the villain, Mr. Big, is identified more with old pirate treasure than SMERSH. (Bond's vendetta against SMERSH is perfectly un...
fortunately, the top reviewer on this entry has done a bang-up job dissecting this work so my workload here is light. I will only add that I disagree with Fleming's change of venue inside the work.
