Ian Fleming Casino Royal Review

Casino RoyaleCasino Royale by Ian Fleming
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great classic Bond novel from Fleming.

James Bond 007 is sent to Jamaica on a mission that is centred around a man linked to SMERSH and the Soviet Union.

In the typical style of later Bond novels Bond is working with Female agent named Vesper Lynd and we all know what will happen here.

This book is one of the best Bond novels ever written by Fleming it has everything action drama and that style and sophistication found in many of the later Bond novels along with gadgets villains and everything else, this is also the first time we see the infamous Felix Leiter who tends to popup now and again in the series.

I think this is great read and I would recommend it anyone who likes 007 or Ian Fleming, in the words of Bond “The bitch is dead”

Andy McNab Dark Winter Review

Dark Winter (Nick Stone, #6)Dark Winter by Andy McNab
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a great book with a good story line that makes you what to keep reading it's a typical book of the Nick Stone series, action packed with the usual air of danger and excitement of a McNab novel.

This book is set manly in the UK Stone is a guardian to a troubled teenage girl haunted by the events of the past, the story is centred around a certain strain of the pelage that has fallen into the hands of terrorists.

I think this is a great book following the Nick Stone form but it’s not as good later books like Recoil and Aggressor. I would recommend this book to fans of Nick Stone.
