About this listen

The life of secret agent James Bond has begun to fall into a pattern that threatens complacency…until the sunny afternoon when M is kidnapped. The action ricochets across the globe to a volcanic Greek island, where Colonel Sun Liang-tan of the People's Liberation Army of China collaborates with an ex-Nazi atrocity expert in a world-menacing conspiracy.

Stripped of all professional aids, Bond faces, unarmed, the monstrous devices of Colonel Sun in a test that brings him to the verge of his physical endurance.

I know the book was written years ago but it never seemed to get going I wasn't expecting it to be as dull

thought it was a weak story line

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The Pacing is what I struggled with at times it feels like Alan Partridge has written a Bond novel. But I did like the last act.

It's decent. But I prefer other Bond authors

A few times the audio repeats itself so you hear the same sentence twice.

Sort out the editing

James returns, charming and as active as ever. The story line keeps one listening to a great story and the final outcome is enjoyed...

Bond is back......

Not the greatest story, and I couldn’t get into the narrators voice unfortunately, I couldn’t believe the different characters.

Ok, not the best..
