Nobody Lives Forever carries on the winning Bond formula!!!
1 Aug 2002
Format:Paperback
This book is the final and 3rd book in the SPECTRE series. So, who cares it has SPECTRE in it, it's got to be good. It is GREAT! This book is another winner for John Gardner and an unstoppable read at that!
An eye for an eye, Mr. Bond - Bond vs SPECTRE
20 Feb 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Vintage Bond blended pretty well into the 80s by Gardner. Nice mix of sultry and lethal babes who may or may not be allies. Kidnapped May and Moneypenny. Plenty of murderous goons stalking Bond for the huge reward for his head on a silver platter.
Pretty decent plot but some weak points along the bloodied path. Not the best Gardner Bond but fun. A deadly giant bat was a bit much and the finale on Shark Island with a dangerous Bond enemy and lots of bodies and narrow escapes. And a room with a guillotine made just for James. How will he escape? Will he come to the rescue? How can Bond escape a roomful of armed killers? Well, it is Bond.
Four PPKs for this one.

SPECTRE Lives Forever?
18 May 2004
Format:Paperback
As an avid fan of the Bond books, even more so than the films, I've found some real treasures in the non-Fleming Authors. Gardner is has just as good in his own right.
No Body Lives Forever is Gardner middle gournd for me. For the majority its a pleasure to read. There were just a few things that held me back from giving this book a very positive 4. In specific the female leads and their situation with Bond bothered me, and in another wise cool sleek reality based book, there is a really ridiculous scene with a giant vampire bat. That whole bat incident never comes to more of a fruition than a two sentences. If you want to read a Bond book about animals and virus' read Man With the Red Tattoo.
I'm glad that SPECTRE is gone now, it could've ended in better ways, but I'm just glad its over. Unfortuanately Benson couldn't give it a rest, and created the Union, which by all means was ok until it ended so poorly. More poorly so than the way SPECTRE went at the end of this novel.
I've only read 5 other Gardner books, so we'll see how it stacks up when I'm done with the rest. Still a recommended read.
