The Blurb On The Back:
For James Bond, British secret agent 007, international espionage can be a dirty business. Whether it is tracking down a wayward major who has taken a deadly secret with him to the Caribbean, to touching down in New York to protect a former operative falling into the clutches of the KGB, Bond always closes the case – with extreme prejudice.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
This is another ‘taster’ book from Penguin and Starbucks and consists of two James Bond short stories (although Bond is very much a bit player in OCTOPUSSY). They’re a fun way to pass the time but I think they’re more for Bond completists than for people looking to start reading Fleming’s work.
