A fairly easy read - not particularly taxing and easy to flow through the book. Odd typo here and there identify a rush to get the book onto the shelves. Can't help but think that Mr Faulks was ticking a few boxes along the way. The criminal is certainly evil, and there's plenty of baddy-bashing, but there's something missing though. Faulks' Bond is suave, but Faulks' books have been much richer in content and narrative - Birdsong and Charlotte Grey - and I bought this Bond hoping that Faulks would apply the same richness of a reading experience to our hero. A good bash Mr Faulks, but I think it could have been developed a little further, and I hope you find a flow or a groove for your next 007 offering. Just feel as though you've sold yourself a little short on this occasion, as though you had a time target to work to.
