Welcome back to The Blades Library Book Club – the place for quality discussions of the books of James Bond!

Raymond Benson’s Never Dream of Dying

Every two months a James Bond 007 novel is chosen for the club members to read. A thread is posted in the club forums listing locations on where you can find the novel. Discussions about the book will go on as the book is read and when it is finished. Another thread will be created so that club members can post their review and give a rating on the current book.

All fans of the Literary Bond are eligible for membership. All you need to do to sign up is register on the CBn Forums (it’s free and only takes a minute) and then post your name in the sign up thread.

The Book Club’s 34th Book

We are progressing though the James Bond 007 novels in chronological order, since quite a number of members are using the club as an opportunity to read the books for the very first time.
After moving through the Bond novels by Ian Fleming, Kingsley Amis and John Gardner, the club most recently embarked upon the Raymond Benson Bond era and now continues with his fifth novel: 2001′s Never Dream of Dying.

Obtaining The Book

Ordering online should be fairly easy. Never Dream of Dying can be ordered online (although in used condition) from the following sources:

• Amazon.co.uk
• Amazon.com
