I have just finished reading Devil May Care and am surprised at all of the rave reviews the book has been getting.
I have collected and read/re-read all of the James Bond books over the years by Ian Flemming, Robert Markham (aka Kingsley Amis), John Gardner & Raymond Benson and found Sebastian Faulks story to be almost James Bond by numbers when compared to his predecessors. The climax (or should I say anti climax) of the book in which Bond kills the villain is almost tagged on as an after thought. The one thing I did enjoy was the fact the story is set in the 1960's directly after The Man With The Golden Gun.
