“Never Dream Of Dying” completes the “Union Trilogy” set of Benson novels and is almost the last of the old school set of continuation novels, the ones Kingsley Amis slated as Not Bond and which no one in their right mind would champion as great literature. Formally published fan fiction, some might...

Great fun. Bond under attack on a French motorway and deploying a Q branch drone to fight back, women good and bad, a very Fleming show down on the summit of a mountain and the start of enemy action from the mysterious ‘Union’ which, while not SPECTRE, seems more on point in the pitiless 21st centur...

Nie spodziewałem się wiele po “Alei koszmarów”. Nie powiem, że dobre powieści związane z grami to jakaś super rzadkość (chociażby świat Forgotten Realms oferuje kilka niezłych), jednak z reguły jakość jest niespecjalnie wysoka. Od każdej jednak reguły są wyjątki, i do takich należy powieść Raymonda ...

The first Gardner Bond book.In his Acknowledgements at the beginning of the book, Gardner tells us that all of the "hardware" used by Bond in the book is genuine and available one way or another. He then goes on to tell us that that used by Bond's adversary, Anton Murik, is not. This, I think, sets ...

Benson does not do a good job of weeding out all the dialog from the game that was actually meant for the player as opposed meant for Solid Snake.

These books are addictive. When I finish one of these books, I am immediately looking around for the next fix; alas, what will suffice until the next in the series is available in audio? Perhaps I will check out the numerous other works by Raymond Benson.Judy, the masked Black Stiletto, is in her ea...

Judy continues to grow in character and skill in this awesome addition to the Black Stiletto series. I absolutely loved the first book. Book 2 was just as good if not better. Raymond Bensen skillfully draws in more complications to the plot, giving the reader the extra anxiety of FBI interest in the...

I did not want to put this book down. Judy Cooper’s survival spirit caught me right away and swept me off to New York with her, through her years of training and growth, and finally to the super hero clad in practical boots, a balanced knife, and chic leather outfit. The story was so believable, so ...
