4.0 out of 5 stars Another corking read, 8 Sep 2008
By S. Thompson "Wiltshire Saint" (Devizes, Wiltshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Buy this book but put it away. Bring it out when you've booked your stay in a seaside cottage or country house hotel near the south coast.

It bears no relation whatsoever to the film, thank goodness, and is another great page-turner. The book breaks into two parts, the first dealing with accusations of card-sharking and the second with the launch of the 'Moonraker' rocket.

Bond is Bond, and by now (if you're reading him chronologically) you know what to expect in most situations. What really stood out for me was the atmosphere of the novel. The descriptions of London clubs are as evocative as those of the Kent countryside in the second half of the book. I also enjoy Bond's relationship with 'M' far more in the books than as it's portrayed in the films - Bond is much more respectful and respected.

All in all a top read, as enthralling today as it was when it was written over 50 years ago. Ian Fleming, thank you.
