Patrick Lonergan, February 25, 2011 (view all comments by Patrick Lonergan)
Classic cloak-and-dagger spy adventure, all the more thrilling for the fact that James Bond doesn't appear until late in the story to propel the espionage forward. Fleming focuses much of the novel on descriptive locales and colorful backstories involving a secret Russian spy organization and its top agents. The cat-and-mouse double-crosses don't even let up at story's end, where Bond's fate is left uncertain in a cliffhanger that defies the serie's many cinematic adaptations.
