The James Bond Complete Collection: All 14 Original Books

Then you had the build up of the second part, where the reader is aware of James' fate, but he isn't. Pierce Brosnan makes his 007 debut in 'Goldeneye' (1995) where the agent receives his first post-Cold War mission: blow up a Soviet chemical weapons factory with agent 006 (Sean Bean).On infiltrating a top secret meeting, Bond discovers the existence of the global crime organisation SPECTRE and sets about trying to expose them and ultimately bring them down. As MI6 comes under attack and Bond is sent to Shanghai to investigate, he must keep his focus on tracking down and destroying the threat - no matter how high the personal cost.

In 'The Man With the Golden Gun' (1974), Bond (Moore) travels to the Far East to hunt for hired assassin Scaramanga (Christopher Lee), who appears to have Bond as his next target. I understand that some of the books are so different from the movies that the only thing they share is the title. In the time I take to get a bus to my dentist, wait to my turn and went back home I read Thunderball.Yet, I think it adds something to shed some light on when and why Ian Fleming wrote these wonderful adventures.

Fleming is best remembered for creating the character of James Bond and chronicling his adventures in twelve novels and nine short stories. The rookie MI6 agent, aided by British Treasury agent Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), is tasked with infiltrating the group and ultimately defeating the rogue player, both on and off the tables. It was a long process until we found the right form and I hope that fans of the series will like what they see. Cel mai crud criminal din Europa, Stavro Blofeld, retras in Alpii Elvetieni, isi doreste un titlu nobiliar si nimeni nu poate sa-l opreasca.

I really enjoyed the plot of this book, even tho the plot is completly different from the film (which I enjoyed). A seasoned veteran of the service, 007 is sent to single-handedly stop a civil war in the small West African nation of Zanzarim.

Once he is freed, Bond discovers that one of his former captors, Zao (Rick Yune), has teamed up with the evil Gustav Graves (Toby Stephens) and the pair plan to put the fate of the entire world in jeopardy.

Even if Bond succeeds in exacting his revenge, a man with two faces will come to stalk his every waking moment. I was really curious to know if there was some big influence on the success of the series since is so fast and easy read. In 'Skyfall' (2012), Bond (Craig)'s loyalty to M (Judi Dench) is tested as her past comes back to haunt her, and Bond's own doubts about his life and livelihood start to creep in.
