Loading... Live And Let Die (1954)by Ian Fleming
None. Gritty, ugly in a way that reminds us that the sixties were a *long* time ago. More Connery than Moore, unsurprisingly. (  ) eichin | May 10, 2013 |  I liked this book, but I couldn't really get into it. I'm not sure if I'm a James Bond kind of girl...maybe I just wasn't in the mood.

(  ) SuziQoregon | Mar 31, 2013 | My edition Pan X233, 1963 ( ) Georges_T._Dodds | Mar 30, 2013 | They say that the devil is in the details? In that case, Live and Let Die is sheer hell. It's a short novel, padded out with ridiculous details - from every meal Bond eats, to a list of every item in his wardrobe. And that's not even to begin to mention Fleming's ridiculous use of racial stereotypes. My full review is on my blog, Book to the Future. But be warned - it's more a shark attack than a review... http://booktothefuture.com.au/?p=2357 (  ) BooktotheFuture | Mar 30, 2013 | no reviews | add a review
No descriptions found. Bond is off to Harlem, the kingdom of Mr Big, black master of crime and voodoo baron. The trail of terror, treachery and torture leads from New York's black underworld to the shark infested island in the sun that Mr Big calls his own. |
