The latest 007 book. Bond, James Bond. Vodka Martini please, Shaken not stirred.
Ahhh yes, I have to admit that I was excited to dig into the new Bond book. Jeffery Deaver accomplished the difficult task of grasping the original James Bond authors style (Ian Fleming) and yet, maintaining his own personal authorship.
However, to be completely honest, I didn't feel overly excited about the story. As much as I loved Deaver's writing and the basis of the 007 topic, but at the same time couldn't divulge myself into the story. The antagonist didn't seem like a huge threat and the sub-characters were so far removed from Bond that it was hard to have any connection to them.
However, no matter, I would continue to always follow Bond no matter how thick or thin the story. I believe it's safe to assume that Bond lives through the writing of Jeffery Deaver...regardless of weak antagonist characters or not!
